Once there was an elephant,
Who tried to use the telephant-
No! no! I mean an elephone
Who tried to use the telephone-
(Dear me! I am not certain quite
That even now I’ve got it right.)
Howe’er it was, he got his trunk
Entangled in the telephunk:
The more he tried to get it free,
The louder buzzed the telephee-
(I fear I’d better drop the song
Of elephop and telephong!)
Did you know?
Elephants can communicate with infra-sound. Sound so low that we can't hear it but other elephants can. These types of sounds can travel long distances so elephants can hear each other up to 12 miles away!
