Both the author of the article and the lecturer's statements revolve around the beliefs about the elephants. Regarding the passage, The author profoundly believes there are three plausible hypotheses which all together attest that this creature has some specific abilities. However, the professor calls all the mentioned claims into question since they lack enough evidence to be considered credible. In fact, The professor believes all these claims are somehow wrong and addresses, in detail, the trouble with each point made in the reading text.
First and foremost, The author of the reading states that the elephants are aware of their death time, so they go to certain places called elephant graveyards to die alone. The professor repudiates this fallacious belief by referring to more strong evidence. According to the lecturer, the more older they become, the more harder their teeth will become to use. Eventually, they have to eat softer veggies; thereby, they go to lands closer to water for the rest of their life. So this hypothesis is excluded, and it is not convincing.
Another hypothesis, presented by the essayist, hold the idea that elephants are only species after human that have the capability to represent the objects through painting with paintbrushes, while it is not adequate to prove that elephants have artistic spirit. Nevertheless, the orator explicitly addresses this point when she states that elephants' painting depends on their masters. She elaborates on this by bringing up the point that they will learn to move the brush whenever their owner stroke their ears and by repeating this action, because their ears are so sensitive, they will draw a picture of an object. Thus the second claim is also ruled as the result of a more decisive fact which is offered by the professor.
Finally, the author brings this argument to a close by suggesting that elephants are frightened by mice by a shared belief. While he actually ignores one crucial fact. These animals have this phobia because they are not familiar with mice. Not surprisingly, The lecturer takes issue with this claim by contending that the zoo elephants are not afraid of mice because they got accustomed to seeing them nearby. She notes that these two kinds are not usually live close to each other in wild nature, so the elephants do not get used to mice's presence. Consequently, this hypothesis is also based on knowing the reasons.
