Asian elephant approaching beehive fence in Thailand

the results indicated that over 60% of the elephant groups and over 88% of the individual elephants were deterred by the newly installed beehive fence. In the majority of the elephant‐fence interactions in our study (70.7%), the elephants exhibited some type of attentive or alarm behavior. The most commonly observed behaviors were touching or reaching out to the fence and slowly retreating or fleeing. Elephants also exhibited interruption of other behaviors (freezing), spreading of ears, ear flapping, tail in the air, and other behaviors in response to the beehive fence.
