Elephants are the architects of mourning. When a matriarch dies, the herd will stand vigil for hours, touching the bones and carcass with their trunks and feet. They return to the site years later, touching the bones of the deceased long after the flesh has gone. Elephants have been observed covering dead humans or other elephants with leaves and dirt—a rudimentary burial. They produce low-frequency rumbles that are detectable miles away, likely calling to the dead. This suggests a concept of absence , which implies memory and emotional attachment.
