Unfortunately we'll never sort out what is down to self-awaredness and what is training. How much of that image does the elephant understand as an image?

Some people with autism are unable to recognise a drawn/painted image as what it is supposed to represent, they simply see it as a series of lines and marks of paint on paper.
