In a manner of speaking, yes. People raising baby elephants for the purpose of putting them back in the wild (NOT for pets) cannot feed cow's milk to baby elephants because it does not have enough fat content and contains lactose, which elephant calves are intolerant to. So a special formula that contains coconut milk and other things have to be fed to an elephant calf to help it to grow.
