The elephant brain is denser than the human's, and the temporal lobes, associated to memory, are more developed than in humans. Elephant's lobes also have more foldings, so that they can store more information. That's why elephants have excellent memory.

I can't really see the connection of birthday parties and having a good memory.

This is an achievement that humans have trouble doing. for example:- remembering your wifes birthday or forgetting your wedding anniversary.

Are elephants inteligent?

Elephants are incredibly intelligent and have awesome memories. They have the biggest, densest brain of any land mammal. It density means it has more brain cells and brain matter than humans do.The part of an elephant's brain that houses memory is also more wrinkled and folded than ours. It's the wrinkles and folds that hold memories, so elephants are able to remember everything that happens over the course of their lifetime.Memory is fundamental to intelligence.
