No, elephants do not really drink "through" their trunks, but rather suck water up with their trunks, and squirt it into their mouths. They also squirt themselves with water to bathe! An elephant's trunk is a very long nose, with six major muscle groups, and over a hundred thousand individual muscles! An average sized elephant can hold approximately 4 liters of water in its trunk!
