Related elephant mothers spend much of their lives within its protective confines, encircling calves with their care and closing ranks against danger. It’s a world of complex, fluid relationships and remarkable cooperation–sustained thanks to a multisensory system of communication that we humans are only just beginning to grasp. A gentle nudge, an attentive huddle, a violent trumpet blast, a rumble too secret for our human ears– with these and so many other cues, the decisions and deliberations of clan life are made. #elephants #elephantsofinstagram #elephantconservation」8月18日 19時39分
