Elephants are the largest land-dwelling mammals. Animals that were in the same order roamed originally all continents except Australia and Antarctica. Two species are alive today, the Indian elephant which is native to India and Southeast Asia, and the African elephant, who lives south of the Sahara. Elephants are found in forests, savannas and river valleys. The Indian elephant is three meters, four meters high, the African elephant.
The trunk has no bones. It is a greatly prolonged Upper lip and nose, with grass, leaves and water out to the mouth. Elephants take roughly 300 kilograms of food per day and 80 liters of water to him. They suck in water through the nostrils and inject it into the mouth. An elephant's trunk has a capacity of about 6 liters. The trunk is a very versatile organ: It is also the trumpets, used Laubabreißen and Capture of dust for the dust bath. In addition, the animals can carry with it smells; do they keep the trunk sometimes up into the air. With the help of two flaps of skin at the end of the proboscis, which they manage such as fingers, elephants can hold small items and investigate.
MY elephant belongs to the genus of the Bavarian elephants. Is it very rare. These animals are viiiiiel less, eat (thank-God-) .... also not such amounts and cuddle for their loves. I have seen for myself the * g *.
