An elephant, just like all quadruped animals, have only two knees. The knees on animals are located on the hind legs just like humans, which are often referred to as the stifle joint.
The joint on the front legs of any four-legged herbivore, such as horses, cows, elephants, deer, sheep and goats that resemble our own knees (and are often informally labeled as such) is actually called the carpus - the cluster of bones that form the wrist.
No. Actually, the elephant is the only animal with four knees.
Elephants are the only animals that have four knees. Their hind legs and fore legs bend just the same. Elephants can gain top speed of 7m/sec without running.
Yes, elephants have knees. They have two knees at the back, but the front joints are not actually knees. They are regarded as elbows and wrists at the front.
