Do elephant live in social group?
Yes, elephants have very established social order. Each herd has a matriarch, and consist of adult females, and young males and females. The mother, sisters, aunts, and female cousins will raise the young elephants. They will show them where routes to water are, where to find food, specific behaviors, and other things the young elephants need to know. They pass down traditions, sometimes that are specific to their herd. As elephants get older, the females usually stay in the herd. Males will leave at about four years of age. They will go out on their own, or sometimes join smaller all male herds. Sometimes, if a younger elephant is separated from the herd, another herd will take them in. A female elephant will adopt him in, and other females will act as the aunts or relatives that help to raise and teach it.
What are the donkeys enemies?
African Elephants have few natural enemies. Their size and tusks are great defenses and they are only attacked by predators when they are young or sick.

Poacher's are the only true threat to a healthy, full grown African Elephant (other than disease and natural disaster's).
