Elephants

  • Their skills: they have a great memory, can recognize themselves in a mirror and exhibit empathy

Elephants are creatures of the family Elephantidae and the largest existing land animals. There are three species of elephants: the African bush elephant, the African forest elephant, and the Asian elephant. However, not only do they have large ears and prominent bodies, but they have the largest brain of any terrestrial animal with as many neurons as a human brain.

One of the most common techniques for measuring the intelligence of an animal adopted by most animal experts is to compare the brain to their body size.
