Smart Elephants

If I told you to name a very intelligent animal you would probably say something like a dolphin, but you wouldn't think of an elephant. Well guess what? It's true, elephants are some of the most intelligent animals in the world.They can throw sticks and rocks at electrical fences to shorten the power, they can block water holes with bark to drive other animals away from the water, and they can even swat the bugs away with branches. Elephants can figure all of this out because they have the biggest brain of all land animals in the world. I chose this topic because I thought it was very interesting because I never knew elephants were so smart. If you want to read more about this, click here. (by Russell)

    I like the first sentence because you are questioning the audience.

    I like how you started with a question and then answered it yourself. I wonder what the second smartest animal is.

    You have convinced me that elephants are now my favorite animal. They just replaced dolphins.
