Thailand: Elephant Artists At Work

April 4, 2008 – 7:13 am | Written by KiwiPulse

   

Believe it or not but elephants can really paint! Today I came across a video on Youtube about an elephant artist painting with his trunk. It’s amazing to see these wonderful mammals painting original works of art. I have to admit that they are really better than I do at paining. Their talent has fascinated me…so I thought I share with you all some of their amazing works in the videos below. Prepare to be amazed…

Do you think you can paint better than them?

Just remarkable artists don’t you think?

It’s simply awesome….How do they do it, I wonder how the trainers would be training them for such a piece of art.

Some elephants are smarter then the average human especially with the way the world is being run these days. I hope you get what I mean.

Whaaaaat??? Well, knock me over with a paint brush!!

I will never look at elephants the same way again.

They are obviously far more intelligent than most people give them credit for, with trainer or without.

Great post!

No, I doubt very much that I can paint better than these animals can. We humans are just beginning to understand that in many respects, we are not as good as animals.

Elephants as pets, you would have to live in a farm house or something our city houses do not permit us to keep pets of that size.
