Elephants are incredibly smart, plus they have the best memory of any creature on earth, man included.
Not only are elephant brains very large, but they're denser than most animals. This means they have more cells and brain matter in their brains.
Importantly, to be smart, you have to have a good memory. The part of the brain that houses memory is known as the temporal lobe. An elephant's temporal lobes are more developed than that of man.
But this is where it gets really interesting. When a human baby is born, its brain is relatively smooth. As the baby grows and learns, its brain develops folds and fissures to store and hold information. So, an adult human's brain has much more texture, crevices, wrinkles, and folds than a baby's.
Elephants have more folds and crevices in their temporal lobes than humans do. This means that they can store and hold more information than a human and that their memories are better.
Memory is the foundation of intelligence.
