Elephants

Elephant is my favourite animal. The elephant is the biggest terrestrial mammal. It can measure until four metres by high and weigh like 100 people. It is very strong, but he is peaceful: doesn't like fighting. They live in herd and they have an old female as a chief. Moreover, they travel around without ceasing; never settle in one place and look for vegetables and water for drinking. Also they shake their ears when they are getting angry and attack. I love them because they are really clever and lovely. I have a lot of things about elephants and it is like my lucky charm.

10 things that you don't not about elephants:

1. They can't jump.
2. An adult male can weigh between 6-7 tons.
3. The sound they made is known as trumpeting.
4. Elephants can live up to 70 years.
5. Adult elephants sleep standing.
6. Elephants need to eat more than 200 kilos of food a day, so they spend about 16 hours a day eating.
7. They are capable of swimming long distances.
8. When males turn 12 leave the herd and take their own course.
9. They can run at a speed of 40km / h over short distances.
10. They are herbivores and eat mostly grass and bark of trees.
