CORRECT ANSWER:

Animals living today that are bigger than elephants are aquatic. They are:

Blue whale

Sperm whale

Whale shark

Right whale

Finback whale

Humpback whale

Depends on the animal. There are two types African and Indian and each lives in a different zone.

Lionhead rabbits grow between 2 and 6.5 lbs. My Lionhead is about 2 lbs, but she is definitely on the smaller end of the scale. Check online and you can actually see pictures of these pretty bunnies.

The word elephant is neither masculine nor feminine. It is non-gender specific. Note that unlike many other languages, English does not assign have masculine, feminine, and neuter articles so nouns typically have no gender associate - with the obvious exception of nouns referring to gender like girl, boy, bull, cow, buck, doe, etc.

Well, elephants don't really 'hunt' per se. They are herbivores. They forage for food in groups. Females and young make up family groups and males tend to live in bachelor herds unless looking for a mate.

The shape of an elephants ears depend on whether the elephant is an African or Asian elephant. African elephants have larger ears that look somewhat like the continent of Africa. Asian elephants have smaller, rounder ears.

They eat a lot
by drinking 50-100liters of water a day and eating grasses , trees, and berries and sometimes comes out undigested and the droppings will have seeds in them to grow and eat

83,000,000, with most of those being in Africa.

That would be it's tusk.

about 1 - 2 tons

No. Baby elephants feed predominantly on their mothers milk (just like humans). After they are around 6 months or so in age, they start eating small quantities of grass and other plant materials that their mothers feed on. Gradually they start consuming more and more plant materials and turn into full time vegetarians.

The urban legend about elephants being afraid of one of the smallest (mice) has been perpetuated in cartoons, as well as popular animated films such as Disney's 'Dumbo'. It's not clear where the idea came from, but many people have theorized that elephants might be afraid of mice because they fear that the tiny creatures will crawl inside their trunks, irritating them. Elephants in captivity have been exposed to mice because they are frequently found in and around the elephants' feed (hay). Many caretakers have observed mice crawling on the trunks and faces of (awake) elephants and observed that the elephants take absolutely no notice of the mice, much less express fear or in their presence. Based on observations of interactions between elephants and mice, and the apparent peaceful coexistence, it's unclear where the myth may have originated.

Have you ever noticed how big an elephant's ears are? They're like giant flaps! Elephants' big floppy ears usually measure about 22 square feet in size. - Wow! Although you might think they use these giant ears for better hearing, elephants actually mostly use their big ears for cooling down when it's hot! Because elephants are so big and generally live in hot places like Africa or India, they need a little extra help when it comes to cooling off. Elephant ears are full of veins, the little passageways in the body that are responsible for moving blood around. By flapping their wet ears, the many veins in their ears are cooled, and so is the blood inside those veins! The cooled blood then travels all around the elephant, and can help lower the elephant's body temperature by as much as almost 10 degrees Fahrenheit! That might not sound like a lot, but when it comes to body temperature it's actually a pretty COOL amount!

Elephants are herbivores (plant eaters), but they cannot digest cellulose, the substance that makes up much plant matter. They spend about three-quarters of their time, day and night, selecting, picking, preparing and eating food. An adult elephant in the wild will eat in the region of 100 to 200 Kg (220 to 440 lb.) of vegetation per day depending on the habitat and the size of the elephant.

The number of plant species eaten by any one elephant may vary but it is likely to be more than fifty. About 30-60 per cent of elephant diet is grass, if it is available. Like humans and apes, an elephant's choice of food-plants will be determined partly by what grows locally, partly by what was learned from its mother, and partly by what it has discovered by trying novel food items. Elephants also select their meals taking into account the time it takes to prepare each mouthful. Eating long grass is probably the easiest and quickest way for an elephant to fill up! On the other hand, one of the most time-consuming food-items for elephants to prepare is bark. With larger trees, the elephant drives a tusk between the bark and the sapwood and then yanks a strip off the tree with its trunk. The soft wood of some trees such as the baobab is also eaten. Such tusking sometimes destroys the whole tree.

So could the big elephant eat the entire little elephant it it had to?

No they can't see very well at all. They have very long eyelashes to prevent dust from getting in it's eyes to protect from getting blind. They have very good sence of smell so they use their trunk as their eyes.

Naturally animals do not have magnets in them - although they may have an affinity to magnetism.

The only animal I know of - and there may be more - that have a magnet in them is cows. Called - not surprisingly - a cow magnet.

It is placed in their stomach, to attach any metal object they might ingest - they are not the brightest of creatures - to prevent "hardware disease" in cattle.

It prevents, ingested "iron" material from passing into their rectum, where deposits will cause painful and of course, high vets bills.

No. Elephant that was born, immadiately became kids and grown elephant, but is form remains: an elephant. Metamorphosed animals were butterflies and froges.

in a young elephant, their tusks will be shorter, and they will be in the middle of the herd. the older ones will have longer and more... hmm.. more dense tusks and will be on the end/front of the herd or on the outside.

Elephants are too heavy and large to generate enough lift to fly. Their body structure and size are not designed for flying, as they lack wings and a lightweight skeleton. Additionally, their muscles are not suitable for aerial propulsion.

the average ground hog weighs about 12-15 pounds

Elephant girls stay with their mothers for life. They don't know their fathers. Males stay with their mothers about 12 - 15 years. After that they live alone. They never know their fathers either.

Elephants live in the grasslands because they are to large to get around in any other place and that is where they would rather be than a small and squished up place.

First of all, it depends on the elephant. Forest elephants have the forest for shelter, while savanna elephants do not. Elephants, in general, are large enough that they don't need protection from predators and therefore don't need shelter. They also don't need shelter for breeding, as baby elephants are plenty protected by large ones and capable of moving around on their own. Also, some animals need shelter to protect them from the natural elements. Elephants are build strong enough that that does not apply to them, so they don't really need any. In other words, elephants are designed so that they don't need shelter.
