I'm fairly sure this was actually disproven, because I remember being devastated over it, but I'm too lazy to look it up to see if I'm right.
You don't even need to look anything up to disprove this one. Just keep in mind the fact that no one has actually managed to shove an elephant into an MRI machine. We have no idea what they think of us.
Is that a challenge?
Sorry, they actually perceive us the same way we perceive rats
So, they think we're cute? 🐀
Me too, but it's such an insignificant yet delightful idea, so I'm just going to make it my headcanon.
How many elephants even answered that questionnaire? Was it statistically significant?
Awww.....I wanna hug an elephant now.....
....first time any living thing thought of me as cute. Bonus points they think of me as a puppy...
....wonder what an elephant would think if I approached them while carrying a puppy?
Well, at least someone does
Then we kill them for their tusks, ride them, cage them in zoos, and probably other stuff.
Good thing dogs never figured out guns.
Yet. There's still time on the clock
Being a homo sapiens and not elephant-cute must have been not that much fun...
