@kateochsman: *Sighhhh* “Dude, I really liked those plants.” Watch how he breaks the pot so that he can eat the plant and roots. He uses his trunk to grab that plants and hit the pot on the pointy tip of his left tusk. Again, my mistake for having plants out here in winter, but it’s incredible to watch how dexterous, delicate and smart he is. Eles are incredibly emotional and brilliant. They typically favor one tusk over the other for assistance like this, and you can see a notch at the tip of whichever tusk they favor. Just like us being left handed or right handed, eles are each left tusked or right tusked. Amazing. #elephant #artstudio #bushlife #wildlife #animals
