Elephants

Male Asian Elephants stand at around 10 to 11 feet tall at their shoulder. Female Asian Elephants stand around 7 to 9 feet tall. Weight wise, they weigh somewhere between 2.7 tonnes to 4.5 tonnes. Adult Tuskers can even cross this 4.5 tonnes weight. African Elephants are much taller and heavier than Asian Elephants

It is estimated that around 415,000 African elephants live in nature preserves, national parks, and other protected areas across their range in Africa. However, these numbers can fluctuate due to poaching and habitat loss.

No animal living on land is nearly as large as the elephant. They are thrice as tall at the shoulder as an average human being. They measure ten feet or more in body length not counting a trunk which might be another foot long. A large bull elephant's tusks can grow to 2 feet in length.

The elephant is a huge animal by any standard. The blue whale is larger by far being sometimes as long as thirteen feet and weighing many tons, but on land, the elephant is the reigning giant.

f you want the smallest land animal, it

iis the water bear which is a tiny tiny almost invincible bug. look it up if you do not believe me..........................

sory

Elephant ears help to release body heat. It's tusks are used to dig, move trees and branches and to fight with. The elephants trunk is used to touch, breath and get food with. These physical traits of the elephants help to meet it's basic needs.

Elephants do not have bloody noses as a regular occurrence. However, they can experience nosebleeds due to injuries, infections, or other medical conditions, just like any other animal. If an elephant has a bloody nose, it is important to have a veterinarian assess the situation to determine the cause and provide appropriate treatment.

I will not answer this because elephants are beautiful creatures who have feelings just like you and me!!!!!!! They are going to be extinct soon

KILL THE LONG NOSED BASTARDS!lol, you got too shoot them in the eye, then repeatedly stab its ear, them urinate on it, then sell it to a poacher HAHAHA From the videos I have witnessed I have concluded that hunters generally shoot elephants in the middle of the head. This is different from most hunting shots as shooters usually aim for the "critical organs". (Mainly the heart, lungs, and liver). Due to the elephant's size, however, it seems best to shoot the animal in the head for a faster and less painful death.

Elephants are pure vegetarians. Their diet includes huge quantities of grass and leaves from trees. They are also known to eat fruits and coconut. They are especially fond of Bananas. They are known to eat over 150 kgs of vegetation in a single day.

Yes

Yes, elephants can drown if they are unable to exit the water. Although they are excellent swimmers, they can tire easily due to their large size and weight, making it difficult for them to stay afloat for extended periods.

Baby elephants, also known as calves, can weigh between 200-250 lbs at birth and can stand at about 3 feet tall. They grow rapidly during their first year of life and are often dependent on their mothers for several years before becoming independent.

The clitoris is a sensitive organ and, like other body parts, can vary in size and shape from person to person. It is considered normal for one side to be slightly larger than the other. If you have concerns about the size or asymmetry of your clitoris, it's a good idea to speak with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Hundreds of thousands of elephants have been killed over the past century by trophy hunters and ivory poachers. Approximately 100 years there were 5 to 10 million elephants that roamed the savannah of Africa and today there are only a few thousand of these magnificent species left in the jungles of Africa.

Elephants have large, thin ears with a network of blood vessels. To cool down, they flap their ears, causing air to flow over the vessels and help regulate their body temperature. This process cools the blood circulating through their ears before being sent back to the rest of the body.

Elephants are the only animals known to create and use tools for various purposes, such as digging for water and carrying objects. They also have the unique ability to create intricate drawings and paintings using their trunks.

not really they sleep only a few hours at night an short naps

Elephants feel that they must be on the alert for predators. This is true of elephants in the wild and elephants in the zoo. As a result, elephants sleep a maximum of four hours per day/night. This four hours is not in a row. Elephants sleep for about 30 minutes and then get up for something to eat and then lie back down. They repeat this cycle until they get about four hours of sleep.

An elephants trunk is part of their genetic make up (its in their DNA), their trunk grows when they are in their fetus stage. If you want to see, image search "elephant fetus" actually kind of neat.
Nobody is quite certain how the elephant got its trunk, though it's ancestors had very small trunks. It grew longer as the surroundings changed, and has become a very resourceful tool for grabbing food to eat.

Another name for an elephant owner is a "mahout." Mahouts are individuals responsible for caring for and training elephants in Asian cultures.

An ivory statue is typically made from the tusks of elephants, which are poached for their ivory. This illegal poaching threatens the survival of elephant populations in the wild. It is important to discourage the trade of ivory products to protect these animals.

African elephants have bigger ears than Indian elephants. Coincidentally, African elephants' ears resemble the continent of Africa, and Indian elephants' ears resemble the country of India.

An elephant's top speed is about 25 mph (40 kph). They normally only reach this top speed on rare occasions when they are scared or upset. They normally move at a much lower running speed of about 12 to 20 mph (19 to 32 kph) depending on the species, temperate and other factors. However, they tend to stick to a steady walking speed of about 4 mph (6 kph) under normally circumstances.

Please see http://elephant.elehost.com/About_Elephants/Anatomy/The_Brain/the_brain.html "While the brain of the elephant is the largest in size among the land mammals, it actually only occupies a small area at the back of the skull. However, in proportion to the size of the body, the elephant brain is smaller than the human brain. Despite this, the elephant is one of the only animals along with all apes (including ourselves), sperm whales and a few other creatures who has a large brain relative to body size."

Humans can eat elephant meat, if you can find it.
