*I'm on #TeamElephant*

Police in #Malaysia are reporting a bizarre case of #RoadRage, after a group of #elephants attacked a car that had struck one of the herd.

The accident & #pachyderm reprisal occurred Sunday night in #Gerik, a region about 300 kilometres north of #KualaLampur. According to a police statement, a car driven by a 48 yr old man accompanied by his wife & 23 yr old son struck an #ElephantCalf at about 7:35 p.m. local time.

Les éléphants aussi se donnent des noms : les premiers animaux non humains découverts à le faire
les éléphants de savane d’Afrique s’adressent par des cris spécifiques aux individus de leur groupe social. L'éléphant est donc le premier animal non-humain connu à donner des noms à ses congénères.

It is widely assumed that Europe used to be covered by dense, unbroken forests, but ancient pollen shows half was grassland or light woodland.

Animal cognition scientists designed an open-air experiment to test wild elephants’ problem-solving abilities for the first time.

They observed that Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) at Salakpra Wildlife Sanctuary in Thailand could figure out how to work doors that opened in three different ways: push, pull, and slide.

elephants are scared of bees so researchers are creating "bee fences" to protect farmland adjacent to preserves.

"Bee fences have also been found to be an effective deterrent against crop raiding Asian elephants as well, showed a 2018 study King conducted in Sri Lanka. In that case, merely playing recordings of angry bees through speakers in the field was enough to cause the elephants to flee."

Scientists discover why dozens of endangered elephants dropped dead

In 2020, 350 elephants mysteriously died in Botswana, with a further 35 dying in similar circumstances in Zimbabwe. Now scientists think they may have found the reason why
At the time, the deaths in Botswana were attributed to an unspecified cyanobacterial toxin, government officials said, and no further details were published.

Wifey is playing Super Mario Wonder now, since last night, just kinda chilling and playing semi-slow. She's in world 2 and the game looks AWESOME. Definitely lots of co-op potential too, you can even play as different colored Yoshis or Nabbit (when you play as those, you don't get hurt unless you fall off a cliff, but you can't use powerups).

REALLY great looking game. Her theory is that it was originally a Kirby game and they skinned it Mario. It's very Kirby-like in some aspects. Which is never a bad thing!

Oh, and I love elephant Peach! 😍

Hmm, I wonder if there's ever been an elephant in Ojai, California. Interesting statement, but wondering if it has any practical impact on the city. (from earlier this month: "By a 4-1 vote, Ojai City Council adopted the first ordinance in the nation that grants bodily autonomy — or habeas corpus rights — to elephants. This means that, legally, elephants cannot be imprisoned against their will inside city limits.") #elephants #ojai #habeuscorpus #animals https://www.ojaivalleynews.com/news/government/elephants-get-bodily-liberty-in-ojai/article_a0028508-5e72-11ee-ae0b-47cbbffa8472.html#:%7e:text=By%20a%204%2D1%20vote,their%20will%20inside%20city%20limits.

#Elephants spend most of their lives walking huge distances, and their feet are suitably adapted to such a lifestyle. Their bodies are made for walking, which they do many miles a day in the wild and it’s why they suffer from foot diseases and arthritis in zoos because they don't walk, so they develop foot problems due to a lack of constant walking.

SOME INTERESTING FACTS
The eyeball of an #elephant is similar in size to those of humans and is small for such a large animal.
#Elephants and wild pigs are the only ungulates with round pupils.
Round pupils are normally associated with forest or shade-adapted animals.
Elephants have limited angles of vision with a superior ability to see forward rather than sideways or backward.
Eyesight is considered poor in bright light but in dim light movement can be detected at up to 45 m.

Habitat loss has increasingly driven Asian elephants, like these foraging at a garbage dump in Sri Lanka, into human areas.
