Answer : Yes,an elephant breathes through its trunk, or proboscis, which has 2 nostrils through which air can pass.But an elephants muscular trunk-which nearly reaches the ground- can do several other remarkable things. On the end of the trunk is a sensitive, fingertip lip or protuberance( an African elephant has 2) that can feel and pick up food and other objects.
