In the town of Lampang in
northern Thailand, there is an unusuaF group of musicians. They play many different kinds of music-everything from traditional Thai songs to music by Beethoven. Both children and adults love this group.What makes them so popularl Is it their musicf Their looksl2 Yes, it's both of these things, but it's also something else: tfrey're elephants.

Every November,

thousands of people watch elephants dance and play soccer at the Surin Elephant Round-Up
Festival in Thailand.

the Thai Elephant Conservation Center (TECC) in Lampang. The TECC protects elephants. It teaches people to understand and care for these huge, but gentle, animals. And, like many zoos around the world, the TECC encourages elephants to paint. Richard Lair works with the TECC. I{e knows a lot about elephants. He says some of the animals'paintings are very good. But, in fact, elephants hear better than they see. And so he had an idea: if elephants are intelligent and they have good hearing, maybe they can play music. To test his idea, Lair and a friend started the Thai Elephant Orchestra.3 During a performance, the elephants play a variety of instruments, including the drums and the xylophone. The animals also use their voices and trunks to make sounds.

Sangduen Chailert helps elephants at a nature park near Chiang Mai, Thailand.

But can elephants really make music properlyf Yes, says Lair. They're very creative. Humans encourage the animals to play, but the elephants make their own songs; they don't just copy their trainers or other people. There are now CDs of the group's music, which earn money for the TECC. And the

G. Think About lt.

Some monkeys are so l. they get to go to school! Somporn Saewkwo is a(n) 2. at Thailand's Monkey Training College in Surat Thani. He uses a creative way to teach monkeys a very important job-how to pick coconuts from tall trees. First, he holds the monkey's hands. He shows the animal how to spin (turn) a coconut to take it from a tree. Later, Saewkwo takes the monkey to a high tree and he 3. the animal to climb up and pick the fruit. The monkey wears a rope. Using this, Saewkwo can direct the animal from the ground. The 4. of using this 5. is that the trainer doesn't have to climb a tree.
