Using machine learning, researchers found elephants have unique calls for each other, suggesting they use 'names' for communication, showing their social complexity.
The study highlights that elephants do not imitate receiver calls when addressing each other, similar to human naming, indicating a high level of cognitive processing.
Elephants display behaviors like compassion, tool use, and long-term care for young, aligning with human-like traits. They join dolphins and parrots as creatures capable of name calling.
