Elephants feed their young by nursing them with milk produced by their mammary glands. A mother elephant will allow her calf to suckle for several years, typically up to two to four years, providing essential nutrients for growth and development. In addition to milk, mothers also introduce their calves to solid food as they begin to wean, teaching them what to eat from their surroundings. This nurturing process is crucial for the calf's survival and learning.
