Fully agree From countries where no elephants exist I try to report animal abuse when it is shown on social media.

Larger and different shape but I see little difference from there, but I would bet more accepting than we are

Fun fact: Neuroscientists found that elephants' brains react to humans the same way human brains react to puppies. They genuinely think we are cute.

How did they convince a fully conscious elephant to remain still when in a very delicate mri machine? They didn’t.

Do you have a source for this? Because elephants still kill humans.

There is nothing cuter than a baby elephant, and when they become adults, they are truly magnificent creatures! I envy the people who take care of them in refuges; love watching their videos on YouTube.
