Best Answer

Some things that Elephants eat include... plants, such as... * grass * leaves Fruits, such as... * apples (Elephants will NOT eat green apples) * bananas * pineapple * watermelon Not everything they eat is listed above, they will eat almost anything. Elephants are giant consumers. One way to prove they are giant consumers is that they will eat about 10% or their body weight every day. Elephants may indeed eat other Elephant dung. Because they are the largest land animals the only way they can reproduce is to eat dung that hold either the egg or sperm. Elephants are amazing creatures. We need to save them, most are on the endangered species list. The safest place for Elephants is either in the wild or in captivity, but don't think you can keep an elephant just anywhere. The best place to have an Elephant would be in Bush Gardens in Tamps Florida. This is true because the area where they are kept is large and they are well pampered Stop preachers keep animals alive.
