elephants do get sick sometimes, like people. If an older elephant or a baby is lagging behind, the others circle it and urge it along to help keep it warm and support it until it is well again. Adult elephants have been seen crushing food in their mouths and allowing young or ailing elephants to remove the food. The food is then collected and chewed.
