Elephants are believed to be exceptionally smart animals, and not just for their famously long memories. A video going viral online shows one elephant using his problem solving skills to cross an electric fence. Electric fencing is increasingly being used to reduce human-wildlife conflict. People in areas where elephants raid crop fields in search of food often use electric fences to keep them out. In this video, however, an elephant found a way to cross the electric fence installed to keep him out.
