Unexpected Elephant Facts: How Human Behavior Is Similar to Elephant Behavior
In many aspects, the behaviour of the elephant is similar to that of people. It's neglected that they should be treated with respect just as people. Let's educate ourselves on their human characteristics.
routine skincare
People are sensitive to wrinkles and take great care to avoid developing folds and creases. Elephants have wrinkles from the moment they are born, but the skincare routine is comparable. Both people and elephants are impacted by sunlight. Elephants lack the choice of sunscreen that humans do. They opt for the sand and mud [herbal approach], which soothes and protects their highly sensitive skin while also acting as a sunscreen and insect repellant.
fans of fast driving Elephants can move at a pace of 30 km/h (20 mph). Although it is slow compared to your car's top speed, the power is considerable when seen from the perspective of its 14,000 lb weight! They are not careless like erratic car drivers, but rather picture a tiny bug creeping through a bush.
Strong ties to family
The herd is led by the elephant's female. The cows rear the calves as a group. At the age of 12, male elephants begin living alone and depart from the herd. Since the females don't leave their mothers, the herd is made up of several generations of female relatives. Female elephants also deserve to be respected in the same way that you do for human ladies.
empathetic and thoughtful
Elephants speak their own language and are gentle giants. Like humans, they rely on physical contact such as a pat on the back following a challenging effort. The herd strokes and hugs a newborn elephant's trunk when it cries or yells.
They are intelligent creatures with complex sensibility, compassion, emotions, and self-awareness. Anyone who is unable to defend himself will also be guarded by the herd. The elderly, sick, and injured are gathered together by the herd in a circle for protection. When they decide it is safe, they only move.
enjoy swimming
Elephants enjoy getting in the water much like people do. Their size doesn't significantly affect how they swim. The elephants swim with the trunk acting as a snorkel. They benefit from playing in the water since they can readily relax their leg joints as they float.
Keep in mind
Elephants don't forget, according to science. A female elephant gets better at recognising friends and enemies as she ages. It is her responsibility as the matriarch of the herd to distinguish between a friend and an enemy approaching her herd. Other elephants are free to focus on mating and feeding without having to worry about anything.
Mourning
Elephants grieve for the loss of a loved one in a similar way to people. With their trunks, they caress and touch the loved one's skull. Even years after the passing of their loved one, they still halt there for a while before going on. I salute their powerful memory!
Elephants do the same things as people do: they eat, swim, run, look out for one another, guard them, and mourn when they lose someone. Elephants require assistance, just like humans do. Even though there are strict laws and penalties for poaching, the ivory trade still thrives. The majestic animals need your assistance.
