What is an "elephant"?

An elephant is a large, majestic mammal with a distinctive, elongated nose called a trunk that can be used for a variety of purposes, such as grasping objects, drinking water, and communication. Elephants are known for their incredible size and strength, with adult males weighing up to six tons and standing over 13 feet tall. They are also known for their intelligence, with the ability to recognize themselves in mirrors and exhibit behaviors that suggest empathy and self-awareness. Elephants are social animals that live in herds, with females and their young forming tight-knit family units led by a matriarch. They are herbivores and can consume up to 300 pounds of vegetation in a single day. Elephants are an important cultural symbol in many parts of the world and are also revered for their conservation status as endangered species.
