泰國大象節
泰國大象節，泰國富有特色的傳統宗教節日，其主要表演者是大象。大象在泰國文化中享有很高地位，是力量與優雅的象征。創辦于1960年的大象盛會，在每年3月13舉行。通常包括展示、游行和大象舞蹈比賽等活動環節，總能吸引數千名泰國人和各國游客，為當地經濟的一大支柱。
大象是泰國的吉祥動物、國寶，在古代不僅是日常生活中必不可少的重要交通工具，也是戰爭中國王的坐騎。然而，現今泰國全國野生大象僅存約3000頭，人工飼養的大象也只有4000頭左右，濫捕大象的問題仍然存在。泰國政府從1998年起，將每年的3月13日定為“大象節”，希望通過“大象節”喚起民眾對大象的愛護及對大象文化的傳承。

Tip :
大象大腦的大小是人類的三倍，并且同樣具有復雜的神經網絡，以及高度發達的海馬體和大腦皮層，而且它的神經元的數量足足有2570億個，但人類卻只有860億個。這說明大象的大腦具有長期記憶的基礎，再加上與情感情感相關的海馬體，不僅能讓大象的情商相當高，還能將他自己的感受嵌入長期記憶中，這使得他的記憶成為一個復雜具有適應能力的載體，自然遠超機械性記憶。所以大象一般不會忘事。
