No, the elephant certainly did NOT evolve from manatees. After the first common ancestor mutated, it eventually changed into the five kingdoms. Although sharing the same Kingdom, elephants are not related to manatees closely enough for there to be any mutation. Such a large mutation is not yet possible for organisms other than bacteria, such as AIDS.

• African elephants are located in African some live in the forest or were there is no trees well few trees i answered because i was looking for this too so thank you for reading my answer Chou!

The elephant stays in the womb for about a year

The amount of muscles an elephant has in its trunk varies on the size of the elephant, as an elephant grows larger it will build more muscles. The average elephant has approximately 40,000 muscles in its trunk.

Elephants live in family groups for many generations, therefore they never go on their own. Orphaned elephants aren't alone either. Usually another female elephant cares for that elephant.

Their mothers stop caring for them when they are four to five years old because it takes a while for the elephants to learn everything. Once they have learned, they become a member of the group who protects their family.

The African Elephant has the largest ears (as compared to the Indian Elephant).

28 beats per minute at rest (see www.thaifocus.com/elephant/heartbeat.htm)

the habitats of an elephant are grasslands,marshes forest,deserts, and mountains. It depends on what type of elephant it is.

As long as it takes to quench it's thirst.

Dolphin sounds are usually within the hearing range of people. Echo location clicks can range up to about 150,000 Hz, that is eight times higher than the normal human hearing range. A lot of these clicks occur at frequencies as low as 2,000 Hz. So people can easily hear them with an underwater microphone, called hydrophone.

because people poach them for their tusks, which are made out of ivory.

A blue whales tongue weight approximately 3 metric tons. The length of the skull on an average is around 19 feet and so the tongue can be around the same size. Its mouth is large enough to hold 90 metric tons of food and water.

Infant elephants use their mouths while curling up their trunks out of the way.

an elephant can eat 300 pounds of food in one day and must eat that much

i know that because i read it in a geographic book about elephants.

if they do not eat that much or more, they may die.

the earth had 1,000 elephants but now the world only has 400!

so help elephants on working on finding food if you are a zoo keeper

or if you want to help!

Yes, they do weight a lot.

The weight of an average, full grown Asian elephant is 3 tons.

The weight of an average, full grown African forest elephant is 3 tons.

The weight of an average, full grown African bush elephant is 6-1/2 tons.

The African Elephant is much larger than the Asian Elephant. Therefore they have larger ears and bigger bodies.

The African elephant has larger ears because it is designed for a warmer climate. besides the ears being used for hearing they also play an important part in body temperature control and the movement of air from the body.

I will be quite honest with you by saying until you asked the question ... I had never heard of any such creature.

When I searched the web I found a few really funny pictures of a frog/turtle like thing which states that it burrows under ground and lays it's eggs there.

All I can say is it looks really fake and doesn't appear like it can do much of anything. By it's design it looks like easy prey for anthing that moves on the planet.

Male African elephants stand at around 10 to 13 feet tall at their shoulder. Female African elephants stand at around 7.2 to 8.5 feet tall at their shoulder.

Though the African females are known to weigh approximately the same as their Asian counterparts, African Bulls are known to be much heavier than their Asian brothers.

• they find a dead one and then eat it!
