All animals that have legs in order to walk on land have two knees. The knees are only found on the hind legs, and for animals such as cows, horses, deer and elephants that look like they have four knees, the joints on the front legs are actually the wrist joint. Elongated bones allow such an animal to increase it's stretch and therefore capable in taking larger strides with minimal effort.
For most animals, particularly birds where the knees are usually completely hidden, the actual knees can be found quite far up on the leg, often right next to the animal's belly. The backwards-bending joint in the middle of the hind legs are actually the animal's ankle, often called the "hock" joint.

Yes, elephants do have knee caps. Their knee caps are large and situated high on their front legs, closer to their body compared to human knee caps. These adaptations help support the weight of the elephant's massive body.
Knee caps appear when a child reaches 2 to 6 years of age.
Knee caps are also called Patellae in scientific communities. A single knee cap is called a patella.

Fresh Lemon Juice, It worked for Me
the patella i think it is because that is the knee caps real name in the skeletal system
Knee caps, or patellae, serve to protect the knee joint and provide leverage for the thigh muscles to straighten the leg. They also help distribute forces evenly across the knee joint during movement, which contributes to stability and efficiency of the joint.
