Whenever someone tries to claim that evolution is a lie, I send them a picture of platybelodon.

1. It’s an excellent example of transitional evolution.

2. It’s a mess who would intentionally do this and why

3. It makes them piss themselves a little.

“Evolution is just a theory-”

Oh good god

I couldn’t help but wonder what this absolute bastard of a skull would look like, and

I was not disappointed. But I was terrified.

OK but what is fucking killing me is that this whole argument, while brilliant, is this:

@cooolgnome

Omg this just made my whole week😩🥰🥰🥰

anyone feel like crying? just watch this video (and be sure to unmute it.)

I never thought about the fact that these ma were loud af

Elephants:

one eye two noses, cyclopses have the nose of a bloodhound and another, different bloodhound

hey you know what, when youre right youre right

it’s beautiful

WHOA WAIT I WAS HISTORICALLY RIGHT

Some scientists suspect that the origin of the cyclops myths came about because of elephant skulls, which are vaguely human in shape but with a honking big hole in the middle for the trunk but easily mistakable for an eye socket without any flesh

OMG

Maybe medieval people happened upon a T-Rex fossil and came to a relatively logical conclusion that dragons existed.

I’ve read a couple books on this actually, thats exactly what happened. Also cyclops are from looking at bones from a certain type of baby elephant. The giant note hole and tiny eyes made it look like a single eye.

Yep, can confirm! And what’s even funnier to me is that back in the dark ages, Greek people used to find a lot of prehistoric bear skeletons - and those look exactly like human skeletons, except they’re like eight feet tall or something - so they naturally assumed those were the heroes of legend, and made armour and clothes for them and reburied them with the most splendid and sacred religious ceremonies they could think of? Fast forward five centuries, Athens’ all modern and rational, philosophers and scientists aren’t taking any shit from anyone - but the problem is, people will randomly find graves containing giant-ass warriors, so that’s something that can’t be explained away and yeah, demigods were a thing and yeah, they used to be eight feet tall and sorry I don’t make the rules.

this is the first time i’ve ever seen an elephant skull outside an elephant and i don’t like it much

I don’t know what’s funnier.. the baby elephant chasing the birds, or when he fell and ran to his mom xD

“I told you to stop chasing them damn birds”

animals; they’re just like us

Today’s aesthetic: photos of lurking animals that one wouldn’t reasonably expect to be capable of lurking.

Proof needed

horse why

I’m telling you elephants are chill motherfuckers. They fucking love being helpful. They once defended a man with heatstroke from a truck that came to rescue him. They knew he was sick, laying against a tree for shade. They were watching over him and petting him, and they threatened to charge the vehicle for coming towards him. Another person passed out, and elephants cried over her and buried her body in a traditional elephant funeral. (Piling branches on her). And were quite spooked when she got up later. And an elephant was helping workers to put logs in holes for a wall. On one hole, the elephant absolutely refused to set the log in, despite being punished and goaded. Turns out there was a sleeping dog in the hole.

There are so many good elephants stories. They will even help zookeepers wash other elephants– literally, a zookeeper can be like “[Name 1], please wash [Name 2]” and he will go wash that elephant correctly. Listen guys. Not only are elephants people, but they’re largely better people than us. I’m 10000% serious.

Baby elephant gets bouncy balls for her birthday. [full video]

So I was watching one of those elephant documentaries and some guy walked over to the elephants and the elephants all crowded round to look at him and stroke him with their trunks.

And it reminded me how when there’s a cat in the garden my entire family will go out and cuddle it.

Guys.

Elephants think humans are cute.

Now we know what elephants blog about.

it’s actually proven that elephants view humans as we view cute animals.

elephants are so SWEET though you guys idk if you realize

like, they extensively mourn their dead and one of the things they do is cover them with leaves, and sometimes when people go to sleep on the ground in an area with elephants, they will wake up COVERED WITH LEAVES because some elephants found them and thought they were dead and it made them sad so they buried them!!!!!!!!  omg precious

and they aren’t really “scared of mice” but they will get upset and try really hard to get away from a mouse because (we think) they are really afraid of stepping on the mouse!!!  they know they are big and have big stompy feets and they are afraid of stepping on other animals!!!

also they form long-lasting friendships and when rescuing elephants it’s really important to keep friends together because they can get really depressed when they are separated!  when friends are reunited they make happy sounds and cuddle really close and it’s so cute and it makes me cry.  ;______;  i just, have so many elephant feels you guys

This is what a happy baby elephant looks like.
