In an ideal world some one would eat that elephant.

Elephants that 'paint' or 'play music' have all been trained in this fashion, in fact every single elephant you ride in Thailand has been treated in this way, and it's horrible. By supporting those tourist attractions, you are supporting the tortue of these amazing creatures.

Seems to me (as a psychology student) the perceptions animals have needn't be so different from the ones people have.

Elephants can't paint, just like homo sapiens can't paint. Oh, and moneys can't speak sign language, dogs can't communicate, animals can't memorize anything or have any creative ability. Animals, especially humans who think this video is "fake", are stupid.Don't be so pompous, Pinocchio. Give Dumbo some credit.

I think watching elephants paint is more interesting than watching them do tricks, but that's just me. Nice video.

You're speaking as an artist - what do you know about elephants exactly?Does a parrot look at mini bicycle in a circus and pictures in it's mind where it wants to go on the bike, does it picture its final destination and the wind ruffling the feathers on it head? Of course not. The elephant is very carefully guided by the man standing next to it, one hand under the trunk, the other against the side of it head, with or without a sharp nail to remind the elephant to behave. Been there, seen it.

But how can anyone treat these wonderful animals like that? They`re not toys. They are ver intelligent, they feel pain, they have a soul. In an ideal world, the people who abused them would be imprisoned.
