I agree. The moon thing is still cool and doesn’t sound absurd; some nights it’s bright out and there’s a bright object up in the sky, and it occurs in regular intervals. Sounds believable that some animals would notice it and celebrate the light in the night. But I guess it’s a hoax hehe.

Yeah seems totally plausible to me, I got to see elephants in the wild a few years back, and it left me with no doubt that they were extremely intelligent. Looking into their eyes felt like locking eyes with a fellow human, you just felt there was thinking sentient creature in there. And their behavior in certain situations is very relatable, saw a mother route her calves around a too-aggressive camera tourist car, and once she was sure the babies were safe on the other side, she came back and did what I could only believe was a huge “F YOU” trumpet at the offending car to let them know they were out of line, turned around and went back after the kids.
