Baby Elephants are one of the largest and heavies babies at birth. At birth, they weigh approximately 250 pounds and can stand at around 2.5 feet tall. Elephant calves feed exclusively on their mother's milk for the first few months and grow rapidly in both size and weight. They slowly move on to solid diet like grass and fruits after a few months of age. At the end of a year or so, they weigh over a 1000 pounds.

How are elephant families alike human families?

Elephants are very social and show emotions. One scientist observed a baby elephant that was playing in the grass. The calf got separated from his mother for a period of time. As soon as the calf noticed, the calf started wailing and crying. The calf's mother then rushed to the calf's side and began comforting it with her truck. Elephants are also sensitive to death. Elephants have been observed picking up bones of other elephants and carrying with them.The elephants are also silent for a period of time as if they were remembering the elephant. They focus on the skull, possibly to identify the elephant. Elephants also form circles around their young to protect them from predators. If a herd of elephants are separated, when they reunite they celebrate. This includes spinning, trumpeting, playing, and greetings.
