Why do elephants have longer gestation period then mice?

The larger and more complex an animal is, the longer it takes them to develop. An elephant's trunk contains over 100,000 muscles, and the newborn calf can weigh around 300 pounds. It not only takes a long time to develop all of those individual parts, but it takes some time to put on 300 pounds worth of weight.

Another reason is because the massive amounts that elephants consume, they have slower reproduction rates to help control their own population. This keeps the population from getting too large and eating more than the environment can support. In natural circumstances, this is a good thing. However, with the problem of poaching, it means they are having trouble keeping their population up.
