I'll go first...

My favorite article this week was An elephant from the Berlin Zoo learnt to peel bananas [VIDEO] by @sarahjay1. (It was posted 8 days ago, but I read it on Saturday.) I also included this article in my STEM Saturday Digest, but I had to mention the post again because it really was my favorite - hands down. ;-)

The article tells about a crafty elephant at the Berlin Zoo named, Pang Pha, who learned to peel bananas with her trunk. Surprisingly, this behavior has also been seen from other elephants, but never before in Vienna or Berlin. Interestingly, the elephant is selective in when she decides to peel the bananas. It all depends on how ripe they are, and on whether she's alone or not. There's also an embedded YouTube video, so click through to read more about it and watch the video. There are some interesting theories to explain why she's so choosy, and also how she learned the skill.

And while you're there, why not follow @sarahjay1?

In honor of Pang Pha, here's a fun limerick from ChatGPT.

There once was an elephant quite grand
Who found bananas quite in demand
With her trunk so strong
She peeled them all day long
Leaving nothing but peels on the land
