Amazing! Elephant painting an elephant with perspective (VIDEO)
    #13615236 -



from Wiki
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elephant_intelligence

"Like several other species, elephants are able to produce abstract art using their trunks to hold brushes. An example of this was shown in the TV program Extraordinary Animals, where elephants at a camp in Thailand were able to draw a ' self portrait' with a flower. Although the images are drawn by the elephants, there is always a human person assisting and guiding the movement.[citation needed] From those presentations it cannot be definitely evaluated, whether the elephants are conscious about the shape of their drawings or not.[dubious – discuss]

This extraordinary video documentation of an elephant painting a picture of an elephant - possibly indicating self-awareness - has become widespread on internet news and video websites.[38] The quality of the painting is extremely high, leading many astonished viewers to doubt the video's authenticity. The website snopes.com, which specializes in debunking urban legends, lists the video as "true", in that the elephant produced the brush strokes, but notes that the similarity of the produced paintings is indicative of a learned sequence of strokes rather than a creative effort on the part of the elephant.[39]

Elephants are so fucking smart!

Self Medication:
"Elephants in Africa will self-medicate by chewing on the leaves of a tree from the Boraginaceae family, which induces labor. Kenyans also use this tree for the same purpose[30]."

elephants are awesome. Small children who have already mastered fine motor skills would have problems creating three dimensional drawings like the elephant did.

1) the ground touches all the feet that are supposed to be stationary
2) the trunk is holding the flower
3) the legs have depth
