An amazing thing about elephants is their sensitivity about death. When a elephant dies the herd has a funeral. They are silent like they were remembering the elephant. They pick about the bones and hold them. They will try to identify the elephant by looking at the skull. Elephants do not act like this around other dead animals. If a member of a herd starts to die the herd tries to bring it back to life by lifting it. Elephants also cry when a herd member dies. Later if the herd passes the same spot where a family member died the herd will stand still and be silent. These animals are truly human.
The animal of Thailand is the elephant. Elephants hold a special cultural significance in Thailand and are considered a symbol of strength and wisdom.
Baby elephants suckle with their mouth, using their trunk to help guide and manipulate the process. The trunk also plays a crucial role in their coordination and ability to grasp and hold onto the nipple during feeding.
The elephant's nose, more properly called a trunk, has an ability to grasp and hold things, much like a human hand, so that it can be used to bring food to the elephant's mouth.
An elephant's trunk can hold around 2 gallons or 8 quarts of water at a time. This large capacity allows elephants to drink, bathe, and spray themselves with water for various survival and social purposes.
Because they dont have a uterus to hold a baby.
An elephant's trunk can hold up to 8.5 litres(2.2 gallons) of water.
Because, like all mammals. Elephant calves are helpless by themselves when they are born. They are pretty much like human kids who are entirely dependent on their parents for their survival. So they stay with their mother and her herd so that the elders can protect them and teach them how to survive. The lessons learnt by baby elephants from their mother and herd helps them survive for the rest of their life.

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!
