In Africa, the male elephants are referred to as the Bull elephants, while the females are the cows, and the head of the herd is called the Matriarch (always a female).
The Bulls spend their time by themselves until its time to breed. They live an average of 55 years, but unfortunatelythey'renot being allowed to live to their maximum lifespan due to the current rate of poaching, all because of their ivory that the Chinese want.
