ELEPHANTS
No animals are bigger than whales, but
elephants are bigger than all other animals
on the land. There are elephants in India
and Africa. Indian elephants are a bit
smaller, and theyve also got smaller ears!
Elephants eat a lot of fruit and plants they
eat between 100 and 300 kilograms every
day. They also love water. When theyre
drinking at a river, they often swim and play
in it, too! Elephants live for about 50 or 60
years in the wild, and about 80 years in
safari parks. Theyre very intelligent, and
they can memorize lots of information.
Elephants sometimes attack smaller
animals or humans, but they arent usually
dangerous. Humans are a lot more
dangerous! People hunt and kill between
10,000 and 20,000 elephants every year.
Many people think elephants are important,
fascinating animals and they want to help
them. At the moment, safari parks and zoos
are protecting some elephants from
hunters. There are 90 elephants in British
zoos!
