Tech-savvy elephant knows how to use a touchscreen
3/27/2012We don't know if all elephants have good memories, but Peter certainly does. The plugged-in elephant shown in this clip seems to remember how to use a smartphone, cheerfully passing the time with a trainer by goofing off with a Samsung Galaxy Note. Peter scrolls through pictures, bangs on a virtual xylophone and strums an electronic guitar on the tablet's touchscreen. Most amazingly, Peter uses the stylus to draw what appears to be another elephant. @gregorvios wonders if Peter "worked for peanuts" for this remarkable viral-marketing clip. The makers swear there was no film trickery or post-production involved.
Is Peter really 'using' the touchscreen or simply touching it?
