The elephant and the banana
quote:
Watch an elephant peel a banana with her trunk in incredible first–of-its-kind footage

An Asian elephant at the Berlin Zoo, Pang Pha, taught herself to peel bananas with her trunk by watching her keepers.

I loved how the elephant treated the bananas differently depending on the degree of ripeness.

Animals are scary smart...
