Elephant expert claimed that “genetic memory” of elephants lasts for five generations and that explains the sudden appearance of the giant mammals in areas where they have never been seen before.
Understanding the elephant and taking measures will make it easier to find a solution to the elephant-man conflict. “Elephants tell us what cannot be easily said,” said Anand Shinde of Trunk Call the Wildlife Foundation while speaking at an event organised at Madkholkar College in Chandgad, Kolhapur (Maharashtra) on the occasion of World Earth Day being celebrated on 22nd April. He shared his experiences about pacifying an elephant named Gajraj, who had killed three people in the sanctuary at Tadoba, as well as his other experiences.
He explained the nature, behaviour, mental state of the elephant is very similar to that of a human being and elephants easily express feelings of love, anger, laughter, mockery, etc. “If we want to preserve this very intelligent animal that has very sharp senses which can recognize odors up to seven kilometers away and communicate with each other for up to seven kilometers through sound waves that the human ear cannot hear, it will take at least five years for the efforts we start today to succeed.”
Shinde further said that we should remember that we will be safe in our homes only when the elephant is safe in its home and that the genetic memory of elephants lasts for five generations. That’s why in some areas where there was never an elephant in the past, elephants suddenly appear and we are surprised. In such a situation, it is likely that earlier generations of elephants lived there, and the present generations of elephants are traversing that area using the genetic memory of geography of that area, but we are unaware of that.
Trunk Call the Wildlife Foundation is implementing an elephant conservation programme in 70 villages, including 50 villages provided by the Maharashtra Forest Department and another 20 villages that have joined it on their own. Apart from elephant conservation, the biggest part of the programme is to educate people about elephants and bisons. For the past 20 years, the main part of the programme has been to give elephants an elephant’s corridor, restore their food chain that has ended, and secure their habitat, rather than bursting crackers, planting bio fences and blocking the elephant’s path through trenches. The organization and the forest department will continue to strive for the next few years to help reduce the conflict between elephants and humans.

In movies, T. rex always has a ferocious roar. Did it in real life too? No one knows for sure. But scientists can study the closest living relatives of T. rex , crocodiles and birds, for clues. And a giant animal like T. rex would have made lower-pitched sounds than smaller animals. So scientists study large living animals for clues too!
Lions have the loudest roar of all the big cats. The roar is so loud it can be heard up to 5 miles away and reaches 114 decibels (at a distance of around one meter). To put that into perspective, the human pain threshold is at around 110 decibels. So, standing too close to a roaring lion could not only send shivers down your spine but also be physically painful.
Roar is a 2014 Indian Hindi-language adventure thriller film written and directed by Kamal Sadanah. The film premiered at an event in Mumbai on 31 July 2014, ahead of its 31 October release. It follows the epic tale of a team trying to outsmart the acute senses of the infamous white tiger who is looking for her cub.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
I am planning to get one of these Create Your Own Dolls. I need help deciding on which one. l always wanted a light skin Addy mold, but I also love the pink hair with the classic face mold too! I am so happy they added the holiday dress since I was going to buy it and it helps me justify the cost 😆
Gone are the days when visiting a café was only restricted to a cup of coffee and conversations. Thanks to the growing popularity of the gig economy and ‘café culture’; a visit to a coffee house goes beyond leisure reasons today. Now, people sitting at a work-friendly coffee shop with their laptops is a fairly common sight.

Fruits are the means by which flowering plants (also known as angiosperms) disseminate their seeds. Edible fruits in particular have long propagated using the movements of humans and other animals in a symbiotic relationship that is the means for seed dispersal for the one group and nutrition for the other; humans and many other animals have become dependent on fruits as a source of food.[1] Consequently, fruits account for a substantial fraction of the world's agricultural output, and some (such as the apple and the pomegranate) have acquired extensive cultural and symbolic meanings.
