Amusement park boasts talking elephant

“A male Asiatic elephant, Kosik can pronounce eight words: “good,” “lie down,” “no,” “sit down,” “not yet,” “foot,” “turn,” and “turn around,” in a voice nearly human. It has been thought impossible for elephants to talk because they lack an organ similar to the human tongue. However, an elephant in Kenya was confirmed to be able to imitate the sound of a truck. Zoologists have since accepted that some elephants can mimic what they hear.” – The Hankyoreh
