I think that's pretty amazing! Elephants are a lot smarter than most people think. A lot of people (or people that I know, at least) think of elephants as big, dumb creatures who are afraid of mice and spend all their days getting fat by eating peanuts. But they're actually quite intelligent! They can be trained to do a lot of things, and are used a lot, as Ram mentioned, in labor. I wish that more people knew how smart elephants were. They aren't my favorite animal or anything, but I do like them and think that they should be able to get the recognition that they deserve!
