TL;DR Summary

Pang Pha, an elephant at Berlin Zoo, has become the subject of a scientific study due to her unusual ability to peel bananas with her trunk.

Pang Pha was handraised by a keeper who always fed her peeled bananas, which may have influenced her behavior. Mara at Brazil's Global Sanctuary also peels bananas and hands back the leftover peel.
