Elephants are very special creatures. During years of extensive research and observation, scientists have discovered that elephants’ mourning pattern is very similar to that of humans.
Speaking to National Geographic, George Wittemyer, a Colorado State University conservation biologist who has studied elephants for a long time, said, “Elephants have respect for their dead, but their interaction with their dead is not something we fully understand.”
He added that these creatures act upon emotion when a member of their herd dies, which is truly fascinating and speaks of their emotional inteligence.
Twitter user Parveen Kaswan shared a video which proved yet again that elephants are able to mourn death. They not only bury the bodies but show respect to the bones later on.
The video shows a number of people and vehicles parked in the middle of the road. The reason why is that a herd of elephants is crossing the street.
What caught the attention of the bystanders was that one of the elephants was carrying something with its trunk. When they took a closer look, they realized that the animal was carrying a dead baby elephant.
The herd then stopped and placed the body of the dead calf on the ground as the rest of the group gathered around it.
“The family just don’t want to leave the baby,” Kaswan wrote in the caption and added that the sight resembled “funeral procession.”
As they continued their journey, another animal took the dead baby with its trunk.
To see the incredible moment go to the video below.

Kelly Ripa, 53, Displays Her Figure as She Rocks Sheer Black Gown, Igniting Reactions from Fans
Recently, Mark Consuelos and Kelly Ripa attracted attention on the Oscars red carpet. Some people believed their look at the awards ceremony was subpar, while others thought it was excellent. Supporters posted their opinions on social media.
At the recent Oscars, Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos captivated the show with their stunning display of elegance and beauty. In a picture that went viral on Instagram, Ripa showed off her body in a Jason Wu translucent black gown that was perfectly styled by Audrey Slater and exquisitely beaded. In a traditional tuxedo, Consuelos stood erect at her side and radiated elegance. A personal touch was provided by Ripa’s lighthearted caption, “Mom and dad storming the red carpet.”
A wide range of emotions were expressed in response to Ripa’s wardrobe decision, reflecting the varied sentiments of her sizable fan base. Some admirers expressed their gratitude with remarks like “OMG!!! That dress!!!” and “Kelly, your hair, the dress… you look stunning,” emphasizing how well-liked her appearance was.
Some gave insightful criticism or personal remarks, such as the direct “I love you Kelly but not this dress.” However, it was evident that Ripa’s ability to shine through was widely acknowledged by her audience, as evidenced by the compliment, “Kelly, you especially shine through in that beautiful dress.”
Ripa, who is well-known for her dedication to health and fitness, has never hidden how important exercise is to her. “I’m glad for those who don’t have to work out, but I have to work out because of my body type,” the woman said. Her exercise program consists of a combination of running, SoulCycle, and dance-cardio class AKT. She states that these activities are essential for both her physical and emotional well-being. She has even spent more than a decade working with her personal trainer.
Beyond the gym, Ripa takes a holistic approach to health, emphasizing diet, which has had a significant impact on her life. She believes that maintaining a high-alkaline diet keeps her pain-free and full of energy. Ripa shows a practical and long-lasting approach to health and fitness by balancing her indulgences—such as wine and coffee—with periods of severe commitment to her diet.
At home, Ripa’s culinary explorations infuse her family’s life with humility and comedy. Her family and friends appreciate the delight and work she puts into her meals, even though she freely admits that she is not a great chef.
The Ripa-Consuelos family has good taste in fashion, which is evident in their daughter Lola Consuelos, whose distinct look gives her parents amusement as well as pride. Even though Ripa and Consuelos are fashion icons in their own right, they jokingly admit that Lola is solely responsible for her sense of style. This often leaves them in awe of her natural elegance and occasionally makes them doubt their own sense of style.
