The keeper at Kunming Zoo will give the elephants manicures. How should they do the manicures for the elephants?

I believe many people have never heard of manicures for elephants. Only people do manicures. They have never heard that elephants also need manicures. We may be too ignorant, if not for the news. According to the report, you may never know this in your life, because when we usually go to the zoo, we can only see elephants from a distance, and it is impossible to get close to them. So why do elephants need manicures? Let’s find out together.

In fact, giving elephants manicure is for the sake of their health, because elephants, like people, will develop calluses on their hands and feet. Wild elephants need to walk without shoes, and sometimes they still need to walk in the wild. You need to look for food by yourself, and it will become seriously worn over time. However, in the zoo, because the elephant’s range of activities is limited and there is no need to look for food, her cuticles and nails are supplied by dedicated keepers every day. It will grow very quickly, and because it is not worn, it will also affect your walking, and may cause joint problems over time, so this is why elephants need manicures.

In fact, it is very difficult to do a manicure on an elephant. It takes a manicurist more than an hour to complete the manicure on an elephant, and he is exhausted. Everyone knows that the weight of an elephant is measured in tons, and he He also needs to cooperate with the elephant. After all, he is not a human being. He needs a special trainer to make him lift his feet and put down these movements, so it will be more difficult to work. And their manicurists were exhausted and sweating while doing perfect manicure on an elephant. Sometimes, in order to get them to cooperate, special breeders will feed them food.

I have been to the zoo before. In fact, elephants are very smart. If you give it food, it will hook it up with its trunk and put it into its mouth. The elephant's trunk is as flexible as our human hands. He can hook anything and reach far, so we usually need to read more to understand these natural laws. I believe most people don't know.
