My submission is the elephant!
- They are highly intelligent animals with complex emotions, feelings, compassion and self-awareness (elephants are one of very few species to recognize themselves in a mirror!)
- Elephants cry, play, have incredible memories, and laugh!
- Elephants communicate in a variety of ways (Multi-Channel :) )- including sounds like trumpet calls (some sounds are too low for people to hear), body language, touch and scent. They can also communicate through seismic signals - sounds that create vibrations in the ground - which they may detect through their bones.
- Amazingly, elephant calves are able to stand within 20 minutes of being born and can walk within 1 hour. Up and moving fast!!!
- Elephants are social animals.
- Elephants are the largest land animals on Earth, and they're one of the most unique-looking animals, too. With their characteristic long noses, or trunks; large, floppy ears; and wide, thick legs, there is no other animal with a similar physique.
