Look carefully. #Elephants are not crossing the road. Road is crossing the #forest. #WorldElephantDay
Do you know #elephant family is all women group. Made of #mother, #aunts, #grandmother & all other #ladies. Most of the times Male leave herd early. Kids are looked by all female elephants in herd, all are mothers. Grandmother makes all decision for the family.
Males keep on joining & leaving herds. Well one of the accepted theory is. That males when they get young are pushed out from the herd/family by dominant female, also called as matriarch. To check the inbreeding. Which only shows elephants are highly intelligent.
So matriarch take them on a journey called as life. They are long ranging animals, keep walking. She knows water holes, villages & good habitats. Sometime death of matriarch is a big shock for whole herd. As accumulated knowledge vanishes.
Elephants are long ranging animals. In that process they spread seeds all over the landscape & help in regeneration. I had privilege to look after an elephant reserve, all I can say is; forest walk with the elephants. All pics are mine.
Hope few got message also. This thread reached to a million people.
