Elephants Never Forget	comment	Elephants have a reputation in fiction for possessing excellent memories. This is, to a degree, Truth in Television — elephants are very intelligent animals with long lives and good long-term memory, archetypally represented in the old matriarch who knows where to find water and food for her family during the lean times, even if she only visited that location once in her youth. This is also a matter of concern for zookeepers, as elephants will very much remember an individual human who mistreated them and are very likely to get back at them, sometimes fatally, potentially quite a long way down the road. In fiction, this tends to get exaggerated into elephants having picture-perfect eidetic memory, recalling with perfect clarity trivial events that happened many years or decades earlier. An elephant character, for instance, may quickly read their way through a textbook and thereafter recollect the correct answer to every question therein. This is occasionally extended to elephants being intellectual, and even analytical, creatures (also not far from reality, as elephants are some of the smartest animals on the planet—probably the smartest land animals who aren't primatesnote Some birds—corvids and parrots, specifically—might be on that level but it's obviously pretty hard to tell. If we expand to the sea, cetaceans are probably smarter than elephants but that's not saying much.). Such as the case of Ganesha of Hindu Mythology, an elephant-headed deity of wisdom and knowledge. A relatively common subversion is to have elephants who are instead highly forgetful or who simply don't pay much attention to what's going around them, sometimes surprising characters who expected them to be reliable sources of information. Subtrope of Photographic Memory and Animal Stereotypes. For other elephant stereotypes, see Cruel Elephant and Honorable Elephant.

Elephants Never Forget / int_117116ef	comment	The Penguins of Madagascar: One episode features Burt, the zoo's elephant, enlisting the help of the penguins to help him escape from the zoo, so he can pay back a man who had tormented him with a kazoo as a boy. He persuades them by lampshading this trope. — "Let's just say... an elephant never forgets!" Said payback turns out to be returning the kazoo Burt stole from the kid, because as Burt points out, while an elephant never forgets, "he always forgives."

Elephants Never Forget / int_15788203	comment	Viva PiÃ±ata: Subverted with Ella Elephanilla, who forgets things all the time. However, there are some episodes where this is flipped back to being played straight. In "The Wraisins of Wrath", the raisins in Fergy and Paulie's pie causes her to be opposite of her normal self and able to remember things. She also remembers something apparently unflattering that Pecky wrote about her over a year ago, but he doesn't. In "Ella Forgets to Forget", Fergy starts a service where PiÃ±atas can confide their secrets in Ella, since she'll forget them anyway. But when Fergy tells her to remember to forget, she ends up forgetting to forget (hence the title). This somehow makes her remember all the secrets told to her.

While Colonel Hathi, the leader of the elephants, is leading his herd away from Bagheera and Mowgli, his wife, Winifred, asks him if he's forgetting something. Hathi assures her that as an elephant, he never forgets anything, but she points out to him that he forgot their son, Junior, who had stayed behind to talk with Mowgli. Hathi then leads the elephants back to get Junior and scold him for not following the rest of the herd. Unfortunately, the rest of the herd ends up crashing into Hathi, because, as Junior points out, he forgot to say "Halt!". Mowgli finds this hilarious; Bagheera, not so. The Lion King (1994): In "The Morning Report", as Zazu is referencing a bunch of animal puns and stereotypes, he also touches on the elephants' excellent memory. Zootopia: Invoked and subverted. Nangi the elephant is supposed to have an excellent memory due to being an elephant. However, she cannot remember a single detail about Emmitt Otterton despite him coming to her yoga class for six years. Indeed, Yax, the yak who is asking her about Emmitt, is shown to have a better memory than her, as he lists off various details for the protagonists instead of her.

At the end, however, when a monkey who had been hitting him on the head with a washboard earlier goes to mock him, the elephant turns out to have stuffed the board down the monkey's overalls and hits him over the head instead, cheerfully repeating that an elephant never forgets as the episode ends. This cartoon (and its title song) from 1935 may have helped codify the trope, or at least helped name it.

Elephants Never Forget / int_79d9b538	comment	The Palaververse: Elephants (and mammoths) develop perfect memory in adolescence — once adult elephants experience something, they can recall in perfect detail for the rest of their lives. Their culture is as a consequence highly focused on hoarding memorized lore and keeping one's knowledge away from others. This perfect memory is not always advantageous, since it preserves terrible experiences just as sharply and unfailingly as pleasant ones, and elephants in stressful professions tend to experience psychological issues as they age — and there's something terrible lurking in Pachydermia's far south, which some elephants have to burden themselves with knowing about in full and awful detail to keep contained, often courting madness as a result.
