Welcome to my Donna’s did you know diary for this month and pleased to share the following with you.
Here’s what I learned for this month.
- Interesting reading about elephants!
1) The most obvious characteristic of elephants, besides their massive size, is their trunk.
An elephant’s trunk is nothing more than an elongation of their nose and upper lip,
but it is the most versatile of all mammalian creations.
The trunk is composed of an estimated 150,000 muscles
and is employed as a nose, arm, hand,
and multipurpose tool to pull branches off trees,
uproot grass, pluck fruit, and to place food in their mouths.
The trunk is also used for smelling, trumpeting, drinking, greeting, or throwing dust for dust baths.
Elephant tusks are elongated upper incisors and are the largest and heaviest teeth of any living animal.
The tusks are used for digging for roots and water, stripping the bark off trees for food,
defense from predators,
and fighting each other during mating season.
Elephant tusks grow continuously throughout the elephant’s life.
They can grow as long as 10 feet and weigh as much as 150 pounds each.
