The African elephant is the largest land mammal in the world! So it is natural that reigns in the savannah. What characterizes it is undoubtedly a huge trunk, big ears he uses to cool and huge tusks. The trunk is actually an extension of their lip and their nose, allowing both to communicate and to bring water and food to the mouth, pull and carry branches, scream. His tusks are made of ivory and email and are in fact two teeth, used as a tool and as a defense in the fighting. The elephant lives in herds of twenty individuals and spends most of its time searching for food. It feeds mainly on leaves, bush branches or trees, fruits or bark. Symbol of wisdom, it is also known for his intelligence and memory, hence the expression "to have an elephant's memory."
