Most people use ear buds, matchstick sticks or their little fingers for scratching their ears or cleaning. At the same time, like humans, wildlife also use external equipment to solve their problems. Recently, one such example has been seen. This is the case of Bangalore Bannerghatta Biological Park (BBBP).

Actually, 2 Asian elephants showed that they are also not less than anyone in their use and cognitive ability. Twenty-year-old elephant Sundar, who was rescued from the temple in Kolhapur, Maharashtra. This elephant was seen scratching its ear and mouth with a piece of dry twig. Sundar has been staying in BBBP since 2014. Along with this, Sundar's other partner Maneka has also been seen doing so. Maneka is caught in the camera scratching the neck and lower part of the stomach with a piece of twig.

Let us tell you that Vanshree Vipin Singh, Executive Director of BBBP has said that the use of equipment in elephants is not unique but usage and method depends on elephants. In a 2001 study in Nagarhole National Park, it was found that elephants use it very well by giving a different shape to the branches of the tree for the flies to run away. Which makes it appear that the cerebral cortex (the mammalian brain has the largest area of the cerebrum in the mammalian brain and plays an important role in memory, attention, perception, knowledge, awareness, thought, language and consciousness) of any old species, looks like that of any old species. There is more in comparison.
