Why do elephants have short legs?
As animals get larger, their weight (which is related to their volume) increases proportionally as the third power of their height (it could also be their length, the idea being, whatever linear measurement you take to determine how large they are) but the surface area of their feet only increases in proportion to the square of the length (or diameter) of the foot. As a result, larger animals require proportionally larger feet.

Grey seals are one of the rarest seal species in the world and about two thirds of the entire population lives in British and Irish waters. They have a distinctive horse-like face with a long muzzle, large appealing eyes and long whiskers. Their streamlined body and flippers enable them to move easily through the water. Their fur is not a uniform grey colour, but can vary from light to dark speckled grey and even black. Seal pups however, are born with pure white fur, and stay on land for two to three weeks until they moult. http://www.ptes.org/index.php?page=154

How many octave can the elephant ear hear?
The short answer is 10 octaves.
A human with normal hearing (it declines with age) can hear frequencies ranging from 20 to 20,000 hertz. Octaves increase as frequencies double. So for instance is you started at 6,000 Hz, the next octave up would be 12,000 Hz. It takes ten times to double the frequency starting at 20 Hz to get to 20,480 Hz (20,40,80,160, etc.), which is about the highest a normal ear can perceive. Therefore a normal person's hearing spans 10 octaves.
