New Year lessons to learn from elephantsThough strong and huge, elephants are called gentle giants for a reason. These adorable and fun-loving jumbos are also exceptionally intelligent animals, capable of experiencing and understanding a wide range of emotions. Elephants are also known for their strong sense of community and familial ties. So, naturally, there’s a lot to learn from them. Emphasising the same, Supriya Sahu, an Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer, who often shares stunning wildlife videos, took to Twitter to post two adorable videos of elephants, along with a sweet yet profound message. With the New Year 2023 just a few days away, Mrs. Sahu sought life lessons from elephants and listed five endearing things to prove her point.She captioned the undated videos as, “New Year lessons to learn from elephants: 1. Heavyweight but do not throw weight around, 2. Intelligent but no show-off, 3. Powerful but restrained until provoked, 4. roll in the mud, take long baths, 5. Eat your heart out but take long walks @ParveenKaswan do add more #NewYearlessons”.Watch the videos here:New Year lessons to learn from elephants1.Heavy weight but do not throw weight around2.Intelligent but no show off3.Powerful but restrained untill provoked4.roll in mud,take long baths5.
