Elephant Art again
John Baez gives yet another link to elephant painting, this time a video. You may think it quite astounding. I mentioned on October 29, 2007 that elephants are able to paint quality art, and Baez's link seems to confirm this.
At this point, sceptics (or indeed natural scientists and psychologists) can UTAP try to rebut this fact, but it really does look, at least by the standards of human beings who can't even run an Olympic Games without murder and torture, as if elephants are pretty clever.
IMO: Diffusion tensor MRI and other new neuroscience methods and results will eventually bring out even more astounding facts.
