Elephant self-recognition
Considered an indicator of self-awareness, mirror self-recognition has long seemed limited to humans and apes.
-
Cool.
-
In a side note--the most recent National Geographic was completely about the declining numbers of elephants in Africa. It's very depresing.
-
Extremely awesome. I'd like to see video of this.
-
The next time you dread a trip to the dentist, consider the plight of poor Tusko the elephant.
-
I'd like to see video of this. Here.
-
I consider the elephant to be my totem (rubs elephant tattoo). They are simply amazing creatures. I think we have a vast amount yet to learn from them. Their declining numbers and treatment in some countries is heartbreaking.

Oops.

You mean...all one has to do...is write "I'd like to see a video of this", and in half an hour...presto! ??? *runs off to all of the meetup threads*
-
Damn! Prior art in the very thread that I referenced. /sheepish
-
prior art? you a patent attorney or sumthin'?
-
Hmmm, maybe I should sue...
-
Yeah, look, we've all woken up with strange marks on our forehead and been confused by a mirror. All this proves is that elephants drink Stella too.

(rubs elephant tattoo) Now that's ONE tattoo that will only get better the older you get! Q: How do you know if you pass an elephant? A: You can't get the toilet seat down. Q: Why do elephants wear springs on their feet? A: So they can jump up in trees and screw monkeys. Q: What sound do monkeys hate most? A:Booooiiiiiinnnngggg...Booooiiiiiinnnngggg... Booooiiiiiinnnngggg...

You think your job is bad? Ever gotten a black eye from an elephant penis?
-
Sweet Mothra -- you know that application form was framed for the lunchroom of the Workman's Comp office...

*shows the Capt. the 'special collection bag'*
-
Now that's what we like to see. Brand recognition. It's a Hefty Bag!
-
I could swear someone once posted an image of a blonde woman looking uneasily at an elephant's fearsome penis. Was that here or in one of my dreams?

Elephant beats keeper when meals late

When your patient is Earth’s largest land animal, sterilization is a big job
-
Why are they sterilizing elephants when their extinction is being discussed? I realize it's tough to keep a non-breeding intact male around because of the testosterone behavioral issues, but wouldn't you think it necessary to preserve the maximum of different genetic material?
-
Maybe they take semen samples before they sterilize it, assuming they have the budget for storage.
-
Elephants run in slow motion
-
Ah-ha! Here's that picture, though it was actually the testicles and the woman just looks curious.
-
She looks dreamily aroused to me. The filthy elephant-gonad-cupping minx. I'll be back in a minute...
-
Happy Elephant Day!
