GILBERT MUSINGS: Art Collected ...is my personal blog, an insight into my brain to what I find interesting, unique, thought provoking, funny, warped and beautiful. All can be considered a visual eye-candy collection.

Tidbits from my art & culture Blogzine Art Nectar << (yea, you can click it to check it out) and my dabblings in photography and artwork are peppered throughout.

Elephants. Did you know….?

Elephants are the only species on Earth other than Homo sapiens and Neanderthals known to have or have had any recognizable ritual around death. They show a keen interest in the bones of their own kind (even unrelated elephants that have died long ago). They are often seen gently investigating the bones with their trunks and feet while remaining very quiet. Sometimes elephants that are completely unrelated to the deceased will still visit their graves. When an elephant is hurt, other elephants (even if they are unrelated) will aid them.
