It
is a 15 minutes video, You will see how intelligent the Elephant is. This is Suda, a 4-year-old
elephant from Thailand. Elephants are one of the few species on this planet
that are sentient (can perceive feeling; feel emotions), self-aware (conscious
of themselves as individuals, i.e. they recognize themselves in a mirror, rather
than thinking their reflection is another elephant), and significantly
intelligent. These are the three main traits we as humans posses, and they lead
us to believe that we are separate from animals; better; more advanced. In
reality, we are really not that different from them. It's such a shame that
these beautiful animals are subjected to such cruelty and suffering at the
hands of trophy hunters and circus masters, when they are so similar to us.
