moles are a chemical standard to specify the quantity of a substance if you convert the atomic weight to grams. Avogadro's constant (6.022 E 23) specifies the number of atoms/molecules in a mole. Now, you have to determine the size of an elephant. Perhaps an estimate would be: 2 meters wide x 4 meters tall x 6 meters long, or about 48 cubic meters per elephant. The moon is about 21.9 billion cubic km, with 1000*1000*1000 cubic meters per cubic kilometer. So you get: 21,900,000,000,000,000,000 or (2.19 E 19) cubic meters. Ok, so we take: 6.022E23/48/2.19E19 And you get somewhere on the order of 573 moons.
