Baby Elephant Searches for Girl's Nose

This is in India, where the calf had fallen into a 15 meter ditch on a tea plantation and its herd must have abandoned it after trying unsuccessfully to retrieve it. It was being raised at a wildlife rehabilitation center that has successfully reintroduced many elephants to the wild.

This video reminded me of when I was a young girl. I volunteered at the children's part of the zoo, in the San Francisco zoo. I helped take care of 2 chimpanzee's, a baby African elephant, and a gibbon. Tina, the elephant, was about the same age as this young elephant, and every bit as "nosy" as this little girl. Since they have to learn to use their trunk, its amazing how gentle they are, even with their clumsy exploring touches. I'm almost 60 years old, and I can still remember Tina's touch as she would wrap her trunk around my arm when I gave her her bottles of milk. Sweet memories!

Elephants have reproductive cycles similar to humans, so she'd be pretty young to have children already. She'd be helping out with her little cousins and siblings though.

[@mzytryck]

I love how, after failing to find her trunk, the baby feels the cameraman's arm/hand and realises it functions like a trunk. She then immediately starts trying to feel the girl's arm, and when she keeps it rigid the baby goes back to the cameraman to double-check. I don't know how old she is, but would a human baby at the same stage learn that quickly? It seems to have been an incredibly fast bit of reasoning for any animal, let alone a baby one.

[@brigidtheirish]

I'm not sure what the equivalent human developmental stage would be, but I think so. I've seen babies who can't quite walk yet carefully examine dogs and cats in a similar manner. Though usually less gently, that's definitely an elephant trait.

[@stikibunn]

@@brigidtheirish Elephants are generally very gentle. They are instinctively aware of their size and power and thus know how to manage it very quickly although very small baby elephants sometimes step on their own trunks. This is where the myth about elephants being scared of mice. It's not the mouse it's that the elephant is aware a creature us down there but can't see it or touch it. What if it's dangerous? What if the elephant accidentally kills it! Elephants have very sensitive feet too. They can adjust the weight they put on it easily. If an elephant hurts you it is on purpose and you have to do a lot to piss off an elephant.

[@sindhuarappattu1718]

mzytryck If human babies are left to grow naturally, without parental guidance , sure they will excel any mammal babies. I don’t mean to disregard any form of life on this beautiful planet.

[@SneakyCheeseThief]

It really is remarkable, the elephant’s awareness of itself vs other creatures. I’m not sure how old this baby is, but you’re right that that is a fairly advanced stage of human child development. The notions of self, difference and separateness are not easily acquired by any animal, at any stage. Very few species have shown conclusive proof they have mastered the concepts. If that is indeed what this little elephant is discovering, it is quite a feat. Though I’d expect nothing less from these creatures. They’ve surprised me time and again, not only with their intelligence but with their almost other-worldly compassion. In their concern for other creatures I would not even hesitate to say they exceed the average human. Dolphins routinely show the same heightened concern as well.

[@stikibunn]

@@SneakyCheeseThief Dolphins have the capacity for empathy but also are known to be a-holes. Elephants are more likely to be sweeties. It comes from them being herbivores as well as at the top of the food chain. A grown elephant has no predators but also no prey.

[@Whofan06]

+King Wacky I've heard that if they're ever able to isolate usable woolly mammoth DNA we'd be able to revive it by placing it in African elephant embryos. We can already do so for a variety of other species, like placing an endangered yak's DNA in a cow embryo. Given the offspring survives it's a pretty amazing method of conservation. All we need is the DNA!

And this is the case with Elephants, they're going instinct.

That has to be a really young elephant. I spent some time around a young one that was about the size of the other elephant seen here. I never knew how wooly around the legs and head they are when that young. I guess I'm not too surprised to see how it's learning tactilely and using its mouth at times like human babies. Thanks to the young woman for her patience. ❤

When you hear a baby elephant "bump" into the adult elephants, you'll be scared of them being clumsy with you... Seriously, I once heard it and it sounded like somebody hit a mattress with a baseball bat. It sounded cute, cause it's like a sound you would expect from cartoon, but if that was a human that got hit, that would several broken bones.

[@XaeeD]

[@Iguana93]

I'm not sure if there are any official theories on this, but I think that having that long trunk is the reason why they are very intelligent. Or it comes hand in hand. If you think about it, only species that have appendages free to manipulate tools and who were forced by some evolutionary niche to learn to use tools, are the ones that are intelligent. You have birds like chickens who can't use their claws too well and are pretty stupid, and then you have intelligent parrots who can use their claws and beaks precisely. Or rodents like bunnies who can't do much with their paws versus rats and mice whose paws are much more nimble and who are considerably smarter. We ourselves have evolved in a niche where we weren't big or strong enough to be safe from predators, so we had to be nimble in grasping branches and running up trees. And so we had reason to become smarter and smarter. :)

[@Iguana93]

Sure, I didn't mean it has to be an absolute rule. Just that there seems to be a connection. It says a lot that our methods of testing animals for intelligence rely a lot on manipulating puzzles and mechanisms. A lot of cetaceans are actually using "tools" to a certain degree. But you're right, the connection may be just a weak one. Nevertheless, I still believe that humans developed as they did because of tools and designing better tools and crafting things. You can still see that as the centerpiece of our civilization. But I may be biased since I'm a design engineer. :D
