A pretty baby elephant is one of the most heart-melting sights in nature!
With their oversized floppy ears, wobbly walk, and curious trunks that haven’t quite learned how to work yet, baby elephants are pure joy. Here are a few sweet facts:
Adorable Baby Elephant Facts
- Born Big: They weigh about 200–250 pounds (90–113 kg) at birth!
- Close-Knit Families: Raised in strong matriarchal herds with moms, grandmas, and aunties all helping.
- Trunk Training: Baby elephants suck their trunks like human babies suck thumbs and learn to use them over time.
- Super Social: They love to play, splash in water, and roll in mud (which also protects their skin).
