How do african elephants clean themselves?
They just jump right into the bathtub with their squonge and bath soap. They really like bubble baths. The bathtub is a convenient river or watering hole. They will use their trunks to insure all of their skin is covered, and will often coat themselves with mud, which helps kill off any parasites, prevents sunburn and keeps off the insects. And if there isn't any water around, they may do the same thing with dust. In many places in Africa, the elephants look deep brown or almost red rather than gray from the dust they have coated themselves with.
