SAY HELLO LIKE AN ELEPHANT

SAY HELLO LIKE AN ELEPHANT. This elephant, one of the main attractions at the Manila Zoological and Botanical Garden, raises its trunk to greet visitors on Monday (March 20, 2023). A National Geographic article says some human words and emotions can now be translated into elephant calls that signal similar emotions or intentions, which they aptly called “elephant language.” The zoo's animal collection is divided into four categories: mammals, birds, reptiles and aquatic life.
