WOW, amazing animals.

I saw that yesterday. What a shame that the elephants are reduced to living beside a pool though.

Yes it was posted yesterday - as you say a really lovely show of cooperation.

Wonderful creatures.

It was their intelligence in immediately leaping to the rescue - and working out how to do it quickly - that amazed me. Not a moment's hesitation!

What a lovely story.

Animals are far more intelligent than we give them credit for.

choux, thanks. I don't often look at Chatterbank threads with headings that give no indication of content, so I didn't see that.

[ummmm]

It's a lovely story. They are very protective animals.

Saw it on the idiot box.

Wonderful animals. they can show a lot of humans a few things about life!

Wonderful intelligent animals and we confine them to life in a zoo, hurt them for their ivory and chain them up all their lives in a lot of countries. Great aren't we ??
