In the wild when male elephants are ready to mate, they find a herd of females, and fight with other males for the right to mate. Once the winner is declared, the mating begins; the male elephant mounts the female, and puts his penis into her vigina.

Believe it or not, elephants attract a mate by fanning their ears back and forth. When a male elephant begins swaying his ears, it gives a signal to female elephants that he is looking to mate.

MATING To atract a female, males flatten their snouts. When males fight for females lots of other elephant seals in the group die. Mostly pups [babys] because they tumble all over the place.They get tumbled on.Southurn species mate in September to October.Northurn species mate in December to January. Females are pregnent for 11 months.They have 1 pup. The female elephant seal is not ready to mate again.She has to wate intell the pup is fully weaned. In 4 weeks the pup is triple its weight from when it was newborn.

Do elephants mate for life your do they change?

No. Elephants do not mate for life. Whenever a female is in heat, adult males from nearby areas come to mate with her. Male elephants fight for mating rights and usually the older & stronger bulls get a chance to mate by overpowering the younger ones. Once the mating is over, both parties go their own ways. The chances of the same male mating again with the same female are very slim.
