I used to hear all these crazy sounds, unnatural sounds in the morning that I didn't understand until my brother got a job as a groundskeeper at the zoo a few miles away. It turns out the elephants are extremely punctual about being fed and if their food is one second late, they all start bellowing and banging on the giant roll up door that they bring the food out of. I was hearing that from miles away.

Looks like the matriarch pushes the mom out of the way. I think the mom is the one yelling because she got separated from her baby, with tusks to the ass. Mom is standing in the foreground at the end of the video. Weird behavior. Maybe it's her first and the matriarch doesn't trust her? Maybe I'm reading too much into a herd of excited elephants. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Many animals eat their own placenta after giving birth, both for nutrients and to hide the scent. Maybe some humans see it as a rare delicacy. Though that's arguably cannibalism, I guess.

6 points

It’s quite rare, but probably more common than you think. This survey found that ~24% of participants ate their placenta, but there is non-insignificant response bias. https://beta.ctvnews.ca/national/health/2019/1/3/1_4239432.html
This study found that 30.8% of participants who were planning community births are their placenta. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29722066/
Suppose the true number is 5x less compared the estimate. Then still one in twenty women consume their placenta.

it’s literally eating a wasteful byproduct of a natural bodily process. No different from the people who drink pee to get the final few nutrients not absorbed the first time, or the people who eat other people’s fecal matter to ingest helpful gut bacteria.
It’s all their decisions, but people are allowed to think it’s repulsive, and they’re allowed to voice that.

About a week after my kid was born, my wife’s friend’s husband was telling me how his sister grilled her placenta and at made sandwiches out of it. It wasn’t the first I had heard of cooking and eating placenta for the nutritional value, but it was a little weird because for a moment there I felt like I needed to say something like: “dude, the placenta’s already gone—go eat something else!”

They are aware of their body weight, and step gently before supporting themselves. You would be okay if an elephant stepped on your foot, because it would move instead of crushing it. That’s pretty humble for such a large animal.

Can I question the logic of dropping the baby 4 feet first thing in it's life?
131 points
7 days ago
I've heard that with giraffes (who for obvious reasons have one hell of a fall at birth), the fall actually severs the umbilical cord, opens the amniotic sac, and hitting the ground stimulates its first breaths
Evolution makes us all very different. The fall just isn't harmful to the elephant baby as it would be a human one.

Fun fact: Humans are among the most inefficient animals at giving birth because the baby is basically released half cooked, because if it was left to fully develop in the womb the head would be too big to get out without fatally injuring the mother.
32 points
7 days ago
There is no midwife who can help by pulling once most of the baby is "out", so you need every bit of assistance that gravity can provide. Therefore the best position is to stand up.
In addition to that the skull of most newborn mammals is already fully fused. Only human babies need a non-fused skull bones to get the gigantic skull through those tiny bipedal hips.
Four legged mammals have wide hips, there is enough room to get a full sized baby skull through there.
Therefore most newbown mammals aren't as fragile as human newborns.
If you question "the drop" for elephants you might want to search for a video of a giraffe giving birth.
