Most of our sense of taste is in the nose
So us humans eat with our nose
Animals too of course
#Elephants take the concept of eating with their nose a little too far though

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐘🦻 #Elephants can hear messages sent through ground vibrations from more than 10 km away using bone conduction.
A #study found that elephants’ larger middle ear bones transmit low-frequency vibrations to the cochlea more effectively than human #ears. A special #muscle may also let elephants voluntarily close their ear canals, potentially boosting sensitivity to infrasonic #sounds by up to 30 times.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐘💩 In a 15-year field #experiment at #Mpala, #Kenya, researchers built fences to keep #elephants out and watched what happened.
Without elephant dung to eat, dung #beetle populations collapsed, resulting in 23% fewer species and 67% fewer individuals. The #study, led by Finote Gijsman, is the first large-scale #demonstration that protecting elephants also protects everything that depends on them.

The world's smallest violin just played. A 75 y.o POS big game hunter dies in #Gabon while trying to kill a duiker. He was crushed by a herd of #elephants. Excellent poetic justice. Can't say I'll shed a tear over such a monstrous person no longer being around. What about you? #BoycottHunting #Boycott4Wildlife
