Gentle Giant Plays Gentleman's Game
Animals never cease to amaze us with their intelligence. And, elephants are said to be exceptionally smart creatures. They have the largest brain of any land animal, and three times as many neurons as humans. While many of these neurons exist to control the elephant’s large and dexterous body, these creatures have demonstrated their impressive mental capabilities time and time again. A female elephant has proved this beyond any doubt by playing the game of cricket with much ease!
A video of the elephant named Rani, from Plathottam -- a tourist spot -- near Taliparamba town in Kannur district of Kerala, playing cricket with a group of men has gone viral on social media.
The elephant wielding a bat by its trunk tackles the ball thrown by the men with ease. The video has attracted diverse comments from netizens. Though many people have made comments commending the elephant, some others have been critical about it saying that 'it is not a natural behaviour of an elephant' and it should be left to be free in the wilderness enjoying nature and not do the bidding of human beings
