Are Elephants Really Afraid Of Mice?

I'm not sure if it's an age old question but the idea of a big ole' elephant running at the sight of a tiny innocent mouse has been ingrained in me since I was a child, thanks Dumbo. But is it true? Results are fascinating.

Huh, interesting.

Instead of the little mouse though, could they actually just be afraid of the magically moving ball of dung?

In the full episode, as a control, they tested it without the mouse. The elephants were not afraid of the moving dung.
