Answer:
At the special school, the baby elephants learn everything from the elephant trainers mainly through instructions, praises, and punishment. Learning starts with food. Elephants are fond of bananas and sugarcane. The trainer raises a piece of sugarcane over the head of a baby elephant. Then the baby elephant raises its head, to eat the sugarcane. At this time, the trainer says ‘salam’. He does this Very often. In this way, the baby elephant learns to raise its head when the trainer says ‘salam’ without giving sugarcane.
