What does an elephant mean?

Elephants have become mascots all over the world because of their charming, honest and upright images. In the traditional culture of China, the word "elephant" is homophonic with the word "auspicious", so the elephant is given more auspicious meanings, such as taking the image as "the image of peace"; Carrying an elephant and inserting a halberd (auspicious) vase is "peaceful and auspicious"; Take a child riding (auspicious) elephant as "auspicious"; Carrying an elephant or rolling its trunk is "good luck".

Dai people have always regarded elephants as a symbol of good luck and strength. For thousands of years, people have formed an indissoluble bond with elephants. People like elephants and worship them. Because Xishuangbanna, Yunnan is a paradise for elephants, the locals love elephants very much. Putting an elephant as a mascot at home means peace, auspiciousness and wealth.

Living habits of elephants

Elephants are social animals, with the family as the unit and the female elephant as the leader. The daily activity time, action route, feeding place and habitat are all commanded by the mother elephant. Adult male elephants only bear the responsibility of protecting family safety. Sometimes several elephants get together to form a large group with hundreds of elephants.

Elephants can communicate with infrasound waves that humans can't hear. Without interference, they can generally travel 1 1 km. If the media are uneven due to the airflow, they can only travel 4 kilometers. If they want to communicate in this situation, elephants will stamp their feet together and make a powerful "bang" sound. This method can travel up to 32 kilometers.
