The Watering Hole

Tarangire National Park, Tanzania

Elephants have amazing long-term memories. Scientists studying three herds in Tanzania found that during a lengthy drought, the two herds led by older matriarchs left the drought area in search of water, and more of their group survived as a result. The scientists concluded that these older females had remembered a drought that had occurred more than 30 years earlier and knew what to do.
