Watch this elephant paint a beautiful image of an elephant holding a flower. You’ll be amazed at how her talent unfolds as she carefully completes each stroke. Her mahout talks to her throughout the process as his gentle touch gives her confidence. She focuses on her work and seems to enjoy the approval of the audience and, of course, the sugar cane and banana treats. All of her training has been reward based.
So touched by their horrific backgrounds and loving personalities, ExoticWorldGifts.com now supports, “Starving Elephant Artisans” by selling their paintings so they can continue to have a new life in Thailand. Own a print of the art for $15.
Some Thai elephant experts believe that the survival of the Asian elephant species will most likely depend on the good treatment of the elephants in well managed privately owned elephant camps. All of us would prefer that all of the elephants be free to be in the wild. For many reasons, that is not possible at this time.

Pretty good post Steve A. 🙂
Absolutely incredible………..
life never ceases to amaze me…….
In some regard, all life is connected…we aren’t elephants and elephants aren’t us, thats not what i am referring to……….there however is a lineage connection if only we knew where that line leads to…….
Beauty has no bounds……
And talent is where you find it………even if this elephant was taught this, it is a talent to remember and to perform this drawing when called upon to do so……..
Thanks for this post
*o* wtf
