Elephants are herbivores; they eat only plant matter. They like to eat fruits, such as watermelons, bananas, and apples. They also eat many veggies, like carrots, cabbage, and spinach. They even will eat branches and leaves from trees, especially when food is scarce, leaving them with few food options. Lastly, they eat peanuts and other legumes. They have also been seen eating dead carcasses of animals, but that is very, very, rare.
They drink from rivers, streams, lakes, etc. During the dry season and drought, they have to walk for miles and miles each day in search of water when it becomes so scarce. Many elephants die during this time from lack of water, which is why they are constantly on the move looking for water sources.

There are several reasons that elephants are painted in India.

Elephants are a symbol of royalty. When the royals ride elephants, the elephants are often adorned with gold, silver, silks, and paints to match the clothing or party of the royalty. The elephants are a statement of power.

Elephants are also painted to help with tourism. They are a major draw in certain areas of India, and many villages depend on the elephants as a source of income. Beautifully painted elephants are often just a happy thing to look at. An elephant covered in painted lotus blossoms and playing tug of war with another elephant will bring in a crowd and cash.

Painted elephants are commonly used in celebration. Elephants are sacred in Indian culture. The Hindu god, Ganesh, has the head of an elephant. Painting and decorating the elephant is a sign of respect and care.

#most elephants may appear to be brown, but that's just mud they roll in to keep biting insects away. Elephants are gray but the Indian variaty may have pinkish areas around their ears

On average, an elephant can ejaculate about 90-100 milliliters of semen per ejaculation.

An African elephant is a herbivore.

Elephant Elephant was created on 2007-09-13.

A proper charge from an African elephant is generally silent with its trunk tucked away under its forelegs, and its ears flat against its head. If the target is a human it will generally knock its foe over and then tusk, head-but or knee the victim to death. Warning charges, (often incorrectly termed "mock" charges) are normally accompanied by vocalisation, much ear flapping, and trunk waving. The elephant pulls up short of its target, generally creating much dust. It is certainly intimidating behaviour. Peter Winhall ( fgasa registered guide)

The greatest claims for hearing distances is in the water. Whales are said to hear over the width of the Atlantic ocean. This is because water is 'practically' incompressable so little energy is dissapated through enthropic heating and the sound just keeps on going and going and going......

OK, I love elephants and I am almost positive this is the reason why. It's because they have very soft, spongy heels. If you throw a soft sponge on the ground, you get almost no noise. So that is why.

In their natural habitat, the tropics, there is no winter season. Therefore your question is meaningless.

However captive Elephants in zoos (in countries where there are winters) survive the winter season with the help of the zoo keepers who provide them with shelter, warmth and food.

Humans have a huge impact on elephants survival. African elephants are hunted by pouchers for their ivory tusks which are sold on the black market and used in various ways. The impact of habitat destruction is just as important if not more important than pouching. It can reduce the amount of food sources, water sources, and breeding sites available to the elephants and reduce their survival rates.

Their trunks after they get water from a lake or river.......but yes they use there trunks=)

Elephants can have positive interactions with people, particularly in controlled settings such as in wildlife reserves or sanctuaries where they are treated with respect and care. However, in the wild, it is important to exercise caution and be mindful of their natural behaviors and habitats to ensure the safety of both the elephants and humans.

Alligator's skin is tough. The skin on the animal's back is rough and ridged with dozens of small bones called osteoderms. The skin on the belly is smooth and was once used to make a handsom, long-lasting leather for handbags, shoes, and other articles. A young American alligator has yellow marks across its body, but these fade after a time. When grown, the American alligator is dull gray and dark olive in color.

i,m not sure but for about 2 minutes at least

There is no good reason to own an elephant. First it's against the law unless you own a zoo. Second they'll sit on you! HAHA I'm soooo funny. Thirdly they are hard to take care of with just one person, their food costs alot, washing them hurts your back. Trust me!

Everyone hates elephant yolks.

When they are in captivity this is a sign of psychosis. This is brought on because they are not in their natural habitat and their needs are not being met. Mostly because of the lack of space to roam.

I think the most important thing is that we should give the elephants a suitable environment.(like an elephant farm) If we couldn't do that, at least we should not occupy their living place.to give them enough space to live. Also we need to arrange some organization, to protect elephants and prevent poacher to kill the elephant for ivory, meat and tucks.

Because They Think It's Funny.

The body covering that a hippopotamus has is skin. They have a very thick and seemingly hairless skin that covers their large bodies. Their skin also has special secretions that keep them safe from bacterial and sun damage.
