They are known as extremely intelligent animals. It is also said that an elephant never forgets. That's because they have better memories than we do. Kimba lives at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo and she is amazing, very curious, very smart and very talented. Every girl loves a pedicure, and Kimba is no exception.
