I'd say about 3/4 to 1 mile away.

∙ 13y agoElephants communicate with each other using at least 25 calls, all of which have different meanings. Humans can hear some of these sounds, like the loud trumpeting elephants make with their trunks. But other calls are so low in frequency that humans can't hear them. Elephants can hear an infrasound call quite easily-even if the elephant making the call is as far as 4 km away!
Elephants have very great memories and elaborate greetings when they haven't seen a neighbor for many months or years. For several minutes, the two old friends will touch trunks, feel one another's faces, and stick trunk tips in each other's mouth.
Elephants also use body language to communicate. For example, when two elephants meet, they may grasp each other's trunks. This behavior is a bit like a human handshake. Elephants use it as a way of saying "hello" to each other or to test each other's strength.

∙ 12y agoIf your talking about the low frequent sounds that we can't hear these sounds can travel over 5 miles. Elephants sense these rumbles through their feet. These sounds can alert other elephants of danger or a female that is looking for a mate.
