                                          ELEPHANT

          The largest animal on land is the elephant and the only animal with a long trunk. They are found in Africa, India and South-East Asia.

          Elephants are divided into two species -  the African and the Asian elephant. Elephants are herbivore. They only feed on leaves and fruits.

          An elephant has two long tusks which it uses as self-defence weapons. The trunk is very strong. A female elephant can lift its calf with its trunk even when the calf is quite big.
