If the latter is true, I'd DEFINITELY have to agree with Wolf. LOL   Naustin Posted on Wednesday, April 09, 2008 - 09:24 am:        That's too much... Some species (Elephants, Whales and Dolphins, Primates, etc. should definatly be afforded basic human rights. Then again, a lot of people don't have basic human rights, so wtf. Why'd you have to post that and draw my attention to these issues so early in the morning?!   Not_purple_s2 Posted on Wednesday, April 09, 2008 - 11:21 am:        I looked it up on snopes.com Supposedly it's true, elephants can be taught to to replicate paintings. Only a handful in the world have been taught to do it. The elephant isn't painting an "original" picture from it's imagination but still it's pretty amazing.
