Yes, it blew up! I knew nothing about this subject but saw it on all and have become a subscriber.
Can’t find it right now but I remember reading about a strange case where a young bull elephant was shot by poachers and walked many miles to get help from the elephant orphanage. The thing that’s interesting is he had never been in the orphanage himself, but he had been hanging out with elephants who had.
I wouldn’t be surprised if elephants have an entire language.
That’s awesome! Welcome! I’m also quite new to the subject, I just noticed in this recent AI explosion that animal communication decoding was coming up quite a bit and thought it would be a neat idea for a community.
I vaguely remember hearing that story of the wounded elephant as well, but didn’t realize that they had never been to the hospital before, that’s amazing! I would love to see more about that.
I have heard some of elephants language being decoded, for instance they seem to have a sound that means bee, and in fact there is even a website that claims to be an english/elephant translator, but I suspect that it must be quite limited.
I was skeptical about the translator but the fine print says it’s run by the David Sheldrake Trust which is the same group that runs the elephant orphanage. It’s definitely a cool awareness tool anyway.

That’s all really neat!

Nice, that certainly does lend it some credence. They must have so much data to use in making it. Great to know!
