According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the largest baby born on record was in Canada and weighed 23 3/4 pounds. But this is very atypical.

Most babies weigh in around 6 - 8 pounds. Having a baby larger than that is pretty rare, unless the mother has diabetes, in which case the babies can be considerably heavier.

Thailand is known as the land of the white elephant. Though no actual white elephants have been sighted in Thailand, the history of the country talks of great kings of the land who had white elephants in their palaces. The white elephant symoblises wealth, peace and prosperity to the nation whose ruler has them.

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.
