Since the pachyderms don't have fingers or thumbs to grasp things, they've adapted their trunks to grab, lift and pull things and since they don't have the kind of bodies that can lean to the ground to drink or eat, they can use their trunks. Not only to snort a trunk full of water to drink, they can also bathe the same way. Their trunks can hold around 10 - 12 litres of water, that's around 3 gallons.
