It breaks my heart that these awesome and beautiful creatures have been treated so cruelly for so long. They don't need man to teach them cooperation; they already have this trait and have strong social skills. It's man who need to cooperate instead of destroying everything
Well said.
Hey, the researchers doing these kinds of problem solving tasks aren't teaching them cooperation. These intelligent animals already have this as they already live in social groups so they do problem solving and cooperation in the wild. I agree with your point that it is us as humans who need to cooperate and learn, though this experiment was to show that elephants do in fact cooperate and problem solve just like we already suspected just now we know for definate. These kinds of experiments are done on chimpanzee's and kea's too in very ethical conditions (because every experiment needs to adhere to the ethical code of conduct :) All love to you :)
It's sad that we humans tend underestimate the intelligence of these marvelous animals.
Don't rule the possibility of them being more intelligent than us
My heart just breaks cuz I love them so much!! 💖🐘 I can hardly bear watching nature shows these days cuz of how hard animals, elephants especially, have it, and when I see something like this it reminds me just how much pain and fear they must feel when they are being poached ,and/or dieing of hunger or thirst, thx to climate change!!
They are incredible creatures ! I love them so much !
Elephants live in family groups, so they have to interact with each. This has been the driving force behind their intelligence. wonder if there is a difference in intelligence between Asiatic and African elephants, as Asiatic Elephants can understand human commands as there are many domesticated/ subjugated elephants in South and South-East Asia. 🤔
I think u should remove the elephant in the room
@@crunchygs8771 _giggity_
Asian elephants are better than African elephants, Firstly they don't usually get angry unlike African Elephants. Secondly they don't crush the entire tree just for eat some leaves. instead they collect leaves from each tree so both trees and elephants can live well. thirdly as working animals and war animals Asian elephants are best they very rarely get scared, almost are fearless. lastly Asian Elephant are very smart to do little jobs from helping people ride on their backs to tack care of human babies. Even tourism project of view African elephants used Asian elephant to carry tourists which can protect tourists from Lions, African elephants etc.
@@withastickangrywhiteman2822 In defense of african elephants, asian elephants have it much easier for the most part. Asian elephants are more common in captivity because african elephant are naturally aggressive. They have to be with all the predators on the Savannah. On the other hand, asian elephant have no predators once they're fully grown.
African elephants don't always knock down trees, it's only when they can't reach the top that they will. This is because african trees have evolved to grow taller than a giraffe. I've seen on documentaries where a male african elephant had to stand on it's back legs to reach the lower branches. In that regard, it's a pretty smart move to recognize that they can knock the tree down. On the other hand, asian elephants don't have to try to find food. The trees in the Indian jungle are shorter and there are more shrubs.
And for the work and war part, it's not so much that african elephants are fearful, it's that they don't take abuse. Hannibal, the king of carthage, rose african elephants to war and stabbed them in the back of the head to get them to charge. Once they did that, everyone on the ground had a raging elephant to deal with. Asian work elephants are heavily abused physically and emotionally. Seeing how they "tame" a baby is heart wrenching. Nothing like watching a baby cry for its mom as a bunch of people beat it until it stops trying to run. Asian work elephants are usually beaten into a state of what's called learned helplessness. Most elephants would prefer not to carry people or drag logs. If you see that happening, there's a good chance they were abused. On the other hand, most african elephants will fly into a blind rage before learned helplessness sets in.
@@withastickangrywhiteman2822 Asian elephants have to be be broken down with beatings and chains before they are subjugated enough to perform menial tasks and to carry tourists. Maybe that's never been attempted with African elephants, or maybe they are simply too strong-willed for it to work. Either way, the way Asian elephants are treated in Asia is abhorrent, and nothing to boast about.
Can you PLEASE release some of the footage with the child and the elephant? PLEASE :D

What was that in the last scene...? That was sooo cute😂😂😍😍😍 the elephant picking the girl up with it's trunk 😍😍
Lol yeah I wanted to see more of that.
Beautiful souls they are smarter n very very brilliant then human
This shows that they think much more than humans
Elephants are cool and awesome

That looks more like a bear squinting.
I still don't know what that is

theyre such majestic creatures
apyeon I know they’re my favorite animal
I’d take these elephants as my teammates in csgo and overwatch any day
Love the kid’s matching iron man t shirt & shorts 😹😻
Truly intelligent
"learn to work together". Clearly they have not observed elephants in the wild. They already know how to do this lol
projects must be made, there were too many questions.
Simp
The purpose of this was to research the animal's cognitive ability. Not just to figure out if they could do it, but to understand why they understood to
@@maxmexmixbruh8695 ^This.
More intelligent than typical humans.
Elephants cooperate with eachother
Humans compete against one another
We're not the same 😔
Speak for yourself
woooow, wonderful.
I love Elephants

Yep that was adorable, I came just to post that lol

Elephants have brain but people who disliked this video don't
Think again.. If you can
Yup, i think u disliked this vid
And even more, human is the only species don't cooperate which are consider low intelligence.
It's likely that nobody actually disliked it. Big social media sites like TH-cam only show randomised approximate vote counts , it's called "fuzzing". It's so bot accounts can't check if their votes were really counted.

What an amazing creatures!!!
Wow so they got brains AND brawn!
i always find it fascinated that we are amazed that an animal that... mourns its dead, leads its clan trough hundreds of miles of desert, can perform difficult work tasks, is said to safe other animals in danger........ is capable of cooperation!! wow, what a finding! who would have thought that! ....... Science turns captain obvious here..^^
2:41 perfectly cut scream
Amazing creatures. Wish more people would study how smart some animals are so it would change how they are treated in captivity. I love wild animals like elephants, giraffes, lions, rhinos, gorillas, and tigers. I have black and white photos of all kinds of wild animals decorating the walls in my home. I need to get some dolphin and chimp photos
Add it to the very very long list of reasons why elephants are the most amazing and beautiful animals on the planet
if anyone is wondering what the song is its florence and machine's dog days are over
In India we worship the elephants as the god of intelligence
Elephant: Can we hurry this up? I have to study for my Physics 301 class. And memorize my lines for our production of "Pirates of Penzance"
Wow let’s see Elephants are super Smart

I love elephants man..🥺
And then these fantastic animals are hunted down in Africa by locals instructed by Chinese for their ivory. The same goes for the rhino.
What makes it even worse is that elephants can experience grief and loss. They may as well be hunting down your family and friends because they feel the same things.
Elephants are often poorly treated South East Asia as well 😥 and it sucks
Barbara Blättler Stop blaming the chinese...Ppl from my country and other southeastern countries who still hold on to ancient beliefs still buy those things, but such practice is getting rarer now
Siodenesse L. Tell me then, why are only Chinese nationals caught with rhino horns and elephant tusks in their luggage here in Namibia and South Africa? Yes, the poachers are locals, but they are being paid by the Chinese who smuggle the items out of the country. Just last year a Chinese national, coming from Namibia war arrested at OR Tambo airport in Johannesburg with 18 rhino horns in his luggage. Explain to me, why is it that Chinese nationals send parcels to China labeling the contents as coffee and then pieces of elephant tusks are hidden in the parcels? Currently there are at least 5 if not more Chinese nationals standing accused of being in possession of elephant tusks or rhino horns here in Namibia. Don’t you agree that this makes us locals sour towards the Chinese nationals? Rhino and elephant are protected species worldwide, and you say we must not blame the Chinese. I think you are a bit naive.
Barbara Blättler In that case I understand your hate. Also maybe you should blame the locals too, a syndicate doesn't involve only one party. I'm not saying that the chinese are not to be blamed in this case but should the locals did not give in to the chinese' offer in the first place, they could never force anything on anyone.
so adorable
Where is this full documentary
Awesome elephants are so smart I love them.
impressive , impresionante
It is this sort of things we need on the interwebs and not fidget spinning clickbaits =)
and without talking they seem to communicate with minds .
exceptionals inteligence! very good .like Brasil brasilian
I love how they used Florence and the machines for this video!
amazing asian elephants
Beautiful and smarts... :)
less elephant co operating - more elephants playing with kids!
0:30 "พร้อมครับ"หรือปล่าว?
i love them
There should be a death penalty for hunting these magnificent beings.
Where is Attenborough?
I love them,
incredible experience
I love it....
Smart elephant who always overthinks "who the hell is dubbing for josh ???"
lovely.
That is amazing!
when
what is the purpose of this training?
This is a study to see if non-human species can cooperate on problem solving tasks essentially testing to see if elephants like humans have a theory of mind (so do the elephants have the capacity to know what the other is thinking i.e solve the task). There have been other studies on theory of mind and problem solving skills done with chimpanzee's and also Kea's :)
ESTOS ANIMALES NO HAN ELEGIDO ESTE TRABAJO. LIBERTAD Y NO EXCLAVITUD
Class elephants but why the music in the background? As if we need prompts to know when they've succeeded

The poachers aren't the only enemy. Thousands of backwards people in India keep elephants in their back yards like junkyard dogs, living in squalor, chained to stumps for 20, 30, 50 years, cruelly "trained" with bull hooks and isolation decades, unable to move except when taken to city to beg or do tricks on the streets and give rides even when its breaking their backs and their spirits. They think they "own" them. Thousands more are chained and abused only to brought out to temple festivals. Dressed in heavy garb, ridden when legs are broken and hips have arthritis. Its inhumane and happening all over India especially in Kerala. They are abused and tortured every day with steel spikes digging into their legs.
That man had a bull hook!!!
'Prom khap'... Means 'Ready' in Thai language.
How do they know to pull the rope?
that was so fascinating
The next question to answer is... can one elephant transfer this knowledge to 2 other elephants who are not familiar with the test.
0:54 he badly needs a hair transplant
Too bad the only animals that don't cooperate is humanity...xD still hell bent on self destruction.
The dog days are over.
They can make the letter S
it only proves the human feels ways too superior about his own intelligence
Man if i were there instead of the elephants i would starve to death
Next they have to beat josh in a game of chess in order to get the seeds
They make it sound like it's the elephants' first time doing this, but it doesn't seem like it. I love elephants btw!
I 💖 Elephants!!🤗
It kind of looked like they brofisted at the beginning there lol
If elephants had hands. It would be late for us
Now this is emergence
Good thing the video ended just before the girl was slamed onto the ground.

I once saw a video where two elephants learned to cooperate, but eventually one figured out that he could get away with cheating, i.e., not doing his part but still get the reward, but now I can't find it-anybody know which one I mean?
That's crazy
VerryLongName
what
I mean humans are animals also so I don't underatand why its hard to believe that animals think about cooperation. How many other animals cooperate???
I wonder if the elephants would have got it the first try if they could see where the rope went

We have elephant god ganesh as symbol of intelligence in india....
My first impresiive is, Is that Indonesian people's ?
When i heard the languange, It is truly broken my heart into flakes of dust
I think that thai language. I am thai and that word sound like `Prom Kaab` in thai it means `Already ready` or `Please ready`
Yeah i already knew the languange when i heard that, Iam familiar with thai language because i loved thai movie.. Thanks for your info, sawadikap :)
