Detailed explanation-1: -Elephants are known for their large ears, tusks made of ivory and their trunks. 2) Elephants are the world’s largest land animal! Male African elephants can reach 3m tall and weigh between 4, 000-7, 500kg. Asian elephants are slightly smaller, reaching 2.7m tall and weighing 3, 000– 6, 000kg.
Detailed explanation-2: -Elephants have around 150, 000 muscle units in their trunk. Their trunks are perhaps the most sensitive organ found in any mammal. Elephants use their trunks to suck up water to drink – it can contain up to 8 litres of water. They also use their trunks as a snorkel when swimming.
Detailed explanation-3: -It depends on the individual and the sex of the calf. But San Diego zoo estimates that baby elephants put on 0.9-1.36 kg (2-3 lbs) per day in their first year. With this, we can estimate a year-old baby elephant weighing 422-633 kg (930-1395 lbs). That’s a heavy toddler!
