Elephants breed year round and start breeding at age 13. Elephants have a gestation time of 22 months, the longest of any animal. Once the baby is born the calf's mother will breed again in the next 3-5 years until she becomes around 45 years old.

This all happens because the tusks of the elephants are very valuable to hunters and the ones with tusks are less likely to survive because they are hunted.Over time the elephants adapt to being hunted and they are born without tusks.


How does elephant reproduce?

Elephants reproduce sexually, with mating occurring between a male and female elephant. The male elephant uses its tusks to compete with other males for mating rights, and the female elephant has a gestation period of around 22 months before giving birth to a single calf. Elephant herds are matriarchal, with the oldest and most experienced female leading the group.
