Watch your tone: Elephants know when you're talking crap about them


A new study has discovered that elephants have the ability to gauge whether or not humans are a threat simply from the tone of their voices.

The big ears are not just for show. Elephants can tell whether a human poses a threat by listening to his voice and sussing out subtle clues about his age, gender and ethnicity, according to a study released on Monday.
