"An
exploration of a commonality between ourselves and elephants."
Etica
& Animali (9/98) : 85 – 110.
It is hard to watch elephants'
remarkable behavior during a family or bond group greeting ceremony, the birth
of a new family member, a playful interaction, the mating of a relative, the
rescue of a family member, or the arrival of a musth male, and not imagine that
they feel very strong emotions which could be best described by words such as
joy, happiness, love, feelings of friendship, exuberance, amusement, pleasure,
compassion, relief, and respect
