so true

Interesting observation. I would also say that people generally underestimate the consciousness of other living beings simply because it is different from our own.

What about adult male humans? How would you rate their control of their prehensile trunks?

Yes….I believe you may be correct. ❤

First the rabbit would have to timidly handout a bank note of $20 to make the comparison valid. And yes you would react exactly like the elephant, take the money and be grateful.

Then the rabbit whips out his phone and take a picture of you

That's what I see also. She was "reading" the elephant's mood and intent, not entirely assured but proceeded to give it some attention and a friendly encounter.

😂😂Good one

We couldn't hear but she was answering elephant riddles? Heh.

Couldnt of said that better myself , going from the asian jungle where i was close enough to touch an elephant & indeed had one come and take sugar cane from my hand . To seeing one in a zoo in oz in a comparatively tiny pen chained and rocking was sad . The thais told us when an elephant rocks side to side its stressed , depressed or loosing its mind and thats when theyre dangerous . The poor animal in the zoo was doing exactly that . The ones in the jungle were very happy (the wwf agreed with an award ) . African elephants by all accounts have a totally different temperament

@@danielallen436 Yes, African elephants are far more territorial and aggressive. To my knowledge, they've never been domesticated

Yeah well you said it right there."most of the time" and it only takes one incident to kill you. Beautiful animals but must be respected at all times

@@alkh3myst kind of have to commend with them that temperament has kept them from being screwed over by humans

@Pugna. apparently weren’t aggressive enough to overcome being trapped by slavery

better than most human males eh?

Absolutely! You can never guage their mood swings and it will always be different and after all they're wild not pets!

And humans

The only truly dangerous animal is the human that lost it's conscience.

@@lovenottheworld5723 d'ailleurs l'humain n'est pas un animal . Il faut pas dire n'importe quoi .

Not really how it works. They will attack you whether you are scared or not. Plenty of examples out there.

@@Dylz8000 These vegans just fabricate stories to make animals seem more special and to humanise them.

I'd like to see some data underpinning that assertion.

That is an old wives tale. They most certainly will attack, BECAUSE THEY ARE WILD. And as such, humans, on foot or in vehicles, should not be feeding them. Just like every other form of wildlife on the planet, they will equate humans to food and begin to act badly. They they are the ones who will pay the price. Remember . . . PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE BEARS. It applies to all wildlife.

#CONFIDENCE

I think she connected with the elephants frame of mind. She calmed him. Quite human really.

Courageous

She 100% had fear. Wasn't fearless but the right amount of fear

Agreed. There is certainly a better word for this woman's behaviour.

The buses also add perspective!

That's its trunk . It's a female And the bus is too It's just got a big exhaust pipe

How do you know it's a male?

he took a step towards her - she was frightened and went back - he stopped, realizing that he had frightened her. very smart elephant.

@@briantravelman hey Brian, short answer is I don’t! I assumed it was a male due to its size. Indian elephants are smaller than African and females smaller than males. This one looks, to me almost the size of an African elephant, so I assumed it was male! Did I offend someone’s idea of gender identity?

I volunteered at the tiger temple in Thailand for a month. I once had a water buffalo gore me in the stomach while i was hand feeding them. Fortunately for me they filed down all the horns so I was only very bruised, but he did manage to lift me off the ground.

Ñ

The elephant saw the bananas so was smart enough to hang back. All creatures understand about food satisfying hungry

Good point. The sad thing is, they probably would’ve killed the elephant if it harmed her. Elephants are highly intelligent & empathetic creatures, however, they’re wild animals.

Nobody would have blamed the elephant or killed it. That just doesn't happen

Whenever an animal hurts a human, the animal is blamed - and then killed. This happens with pet dogs, tigers, gorillas, chimpanzees, and even elephants. 🐘🐘 Humans are always considered blameless by the authorities.

@@nevillec5252 🎯

And the elephant was pretty cool too!

Lol look up the video (I think it's on a gore website so beware, it's graphic material) where an elephant literally body slams a man like a rag doll and steps on him. It's gruesome. I would never approach a wild elephant. He literally kills the guy brutally and in seconds.

Thanx heaps. 😍❤💚💙

I’m pretty sure a wild elephant would have no clue at what nodding means in human speak.

@@louisethorpe4719 You're wrong, elephant are extremely cognitive and intelligent. There is a video of an elephant painting an elephant with a paint brush, yes it was trained to do that, but regardless, it demonstrates huge brain ability. Furthermore they can see what you carry in your hands and interpret your motives and body language is important between elephant too. I'll say you are quite a long way of being ignorant in this matter.

it wasn't nodding.. it was chewing

Did it give her a wink too?

Yes-polite, friendly, respectful. Considering how it could crush any human easily, this behaviour is worthy of note

No.. he is a lazy guy and collecting toll from everyone..

@@pandurangaacharya5230 😃

Better civilized than many humans

Today at least

Elephants are wise and intelligent, they recognize intentions. But people mistakenly believe and think that they are beasts driven by the lust to kill. Anyway, what people don't come up with. They also created myths about gorillas. People, especially civilized people, do not feel nature, do not interact with it, do not correlate, so they have such an opinion. Their unjustified fear, misunderstanding transforms into panic hostility, exaggeration, exaggeration, reluctance and extreme distance. You have to understand nature. The biggest threat is t mothers with calves and young males with testosterone stimulated to aggression. Plus elephants kept in captivity. But people have it that if they don't understand something, they're scared, they're terrified. Just like with spiders. People have much fobies.

It was when she pulled out the camera that I thought the elephant would smack her up side the head - and maybe deserve it for having an agenda behind the giving. Then the smug (truly clueless) grin with her back turned to the elephant made ME want to smack some sense into her!

No doubt she has good intentions.. but that the point.. any reasonably sound mind knows to leave wild animals be and let them enjoy their space.. but one is an idiot this is how good intentions looks like and most of the time it goes wrong.. what do you think will happen if that elephant attacked the women .. it will be put down.. or relocated. All because of some dum f**k has good intentions

Rightly said ..

Actually, I thought she looked plenty fearful, her body language, everything about her...and then in the end, it came out: what stupid people will do for a photo for Facebook. Darwin, go to work!

Only if you are married to it.

Yes, this was very dangerous this is a big big baby to deal with.

Human beings too.

It's actually bad for a wild animal to learn that humans are their friends. They aren't. Humans are dangerous, and fear and aggression is wise and healthy. You want poachers luring innocent ellies to their deaths with treats (and large weapons)?

🙏🙏👍

The rossevelt elk do this manuever too. They will slowly bring the whole of 101 to a stop one lane at a time, then stand there waiting for the babies to gain their courage and come across. One day while this was happening, I watched a Hoopa woman come out of her rattled old truck and threaten to slap the holy crap out of some city boy hells angel wannabe who was revving his stoopid momo thinking that was going to make it better. I was right behind the bikers. He had more sense than I gave him credit for, and stopped it before she pushed him off that bike. Idk if he realized that before he could have gotten up, the whole rest of the line would have jumped onto him. The elk don't push into the vehicles. They just edge out until a vehicle stops in the first lane, one elk stays in front of that vehicle and another one edges into the next lane, until they get compliance from the humans.

Every word is awesome

They are not protecting their families while making the cross. These elephant were frequently fed by the road users. If you watched enough videos of these elephants, you realised how they developed from begging to robbing. They are no longer afraid of the vehicle, they attack the buses and vans, for food. Seems like they even learnt to set up road blocks to rob the road users. These are all habitual, eventually someone will die and the elephant will be killed. Never feed wild animal.

@@esphilee I don't know what goes on there, but I know what goes on here. Here they just want across the road. But it is always a poor idea to feed independent animals

Why not both.

Also please do not destroy their habitats. It is our responsibility to let them live peacefully. The Earth belongs to them also.

Well put, thank you...

I'm Guilty of feeding birds and squirrels,no touching tho. We enjoy watching them from the kitchen window and enclosed deck. Sometimes as many as 4 deers hop my fence between my backyard and the small forest behind my property to graze. We enjoyed them from the distance.

@@anitaparks8945 Since their habitats have been destroyed they have not much food left. There is nothing wrong in feeding wild animals and birds. In Indian state of Rajasthan you will find feeding places for birds in number of villages.

It's a bit late for that, something the should have been considered a long time ago. We want smart new apartments and houses that encroach on land creatures have lived on forever without consequences-not going to happen

Me too, the Bronx Zoo! I was visiting from New England, circa 1962. I distinctly remember being held up to the fence by a relative. The elephant gave me a wet kiss on my face which freaked me out. Decades alter, I would regularly ride an Asian elephant in the opening parade of a circus. I was a performer on the show, 1982-90. Elephants do not belong in circus, I eventually decided. I believe wild animals deserve to live in the wild. I respect elephants enough to know to not approach them, such as this woman did. I have seen elephants go crazy in circus, nothing you want to be be near. When in their territory, one must realize they are trespassing on wild territory, so anything wild could happen.

This particular elephant is in Habarana Sri Lanka, and was conditioned into accepting food by Tourists. Now the elephant doesn’t allow anyone to cross with paying a fee of food, creating the scenarios seen in the video on a daily basis.

You just described human nature!

Now don't scare the followers of this Chinese utube. In season is your little dom statement true. As just proven.

​@@attilakonkoly4329.. my exact words!

So wrong of you to say that

Extremely intelligent doesn't mean extremely wise... Humans are extremely intelligent aren't they. An elephant may have hundreds a reason to do not like humans, they have an extremely good memory, so even if the woman seems calm and friendly the elephant could crush her if he is not in the good mood, as intelligent he is

What is "the size edge"? I understood your point, but please, learn English.

@Kilo Bacon n Eggs Oh, really? I thought it meant living at the edge of something. No, Captain Obvious, I'm talking about using the word "edge" in a grammatically correct way. Some correct ways: The elephant has the edge in terms of size / when it comes to size. In size, the elephant has the edge. Elephants have an edge over humans when we consider size. But, writing such as: "You don't have the intelligence edge." is incorrect. Too much bacon & eggs, perhaps?

I like how the elephant motioned "eating" with his trunk before she actually gave it to him! 1:18, at least that's what it looked like...

@Kilo Bacon n Eggs It isn't, in terms of semantics. I'm not sure you understand the idea of a competitive edge. Taking offence quickly doesn't put one in an advantageous position, therefore the idea of an edge cannot be applied in that context. For instance, in terms of semantics, it's incorrect to say that older humans generally maintain the edge over younger ones in terms of poor health. Thank you for yet another display of your [insert euphemism for idiocy].

That was a woman 🙃

@@leaf16nut I rewatched the video and I can confirm that she was a woman.

In Thailand I once had an elephant charge me. It was tame but it was a young bull and from 100 yards away it charged me at full blast. The reason? I had pineapple in my hand. It wanted to eat. I dropped it and slowly backed away and I'm still here today.

@@raylopez99 my Thailand story is I was riding my bicycle on a dirt road near a temple close to the Cambodian border. I took a turn and there was an elephant standing there that I was shocked to see. I quickly stop, get off the bike , and walk backwards. While doing this I notice a big chain thing on its foot and realize it’s locked up. I think elephants are wonderful but I don’t want to get close to one.

@@TheRDMagee Elephants are mostly harmless when tame. The only time I've heard of a captured elephant, that's domesticated, killing a human is if the person mistreats it and if it's in "musth" which means they are extra horny, and, often, the human gets killed because he's inbetween two bull males that are in musth, and the human is not the target of their aggression but just gets caught inbetween them, trying to fight each other. There's also a shocking short story by George Orwell, based on a true story when he was a policeman in I think Burma, where he was asked to put down an elephant in musth that had killed or injured a human, and he had to do it with a pistol, which is needlessly cruel, and he didn't even want to but was expected to since he was the White man in charge of "law and order". Very well written short story that has many layers of meaning. Bye.

Elephants in Sri Lanka are very different from elephants in Africa

Ahhh

Not if your stupid!

Yes and what you don’t realise is, many tourists and locals die because of it..

@@praveendias1778 Good luck death wish

No this is wrong. Elephants in SL are not aggressive, and the males are even more placid than the females. Only when the male is in heat ( musth) it can be quite aggressive, but that's because of the rise in hormones. Especially the young males.

Well, he welcomed the bananas anyway 😂

not really,.. the elephant has learned people = food. Then like a highwayman robber. It starts to harras people on the street or in cars. Kinda like goverments, when you realy start to think about it, But yeah.. there used to be enough space for all creatures to coexxist.

like Marco says, it's a hold-up, not a protest :)

I agree. We dont know for certain why they are behaving like that but I think elephants are pretty smart and they must had some good reason, it could be related to their habitat.

So true 👍

yh agree

Haha you sound like a dictator. How about letting life go ahead the way it does? You're acting like people are too dumb to understand anything. I bet the elephant is only after people like you, that's why he let her live

Well the problem is probably that people started feeding them and now they associate humans with food. That's one reason to never feed wild animals. They'll start demanding it and might even become dependent.

Yes correct...stay connected from QATAR 🇶🇦

she wasn't brave - she was stupid. Look at her smile on her face like she got away with something, which she did. So many stupid people want to feed, touch, be near wild animals. The ones who get hurt deserve it.

lol she wanted to feed it and get a picture of it. What in this video makes you think she wanted to pass through? I mean, when is ee comments like yours I understand why people are as stupid as this lady is; feed, take picture, smile, turn back - all on an elephant. And you think sh´s brave. She ay be your mother because stupid is hereditary.

This was no probe Einstein. She put herself in a direct position to be attacked. It’s not a “probe” to find out if ur gonna be attacked if the only way to find out is to get attacked
