The life span of elephants is one of the longest in the world of mammals - about seventy years. During rainy periods, the reproduction rate is higher as the dry conditions result in a lower reproductive rate. After a sketch period of 22 months, one cub of hardly 120 to 130 kilograms is born. Females have cubs every four to nine years.
