The Elephants!!

In my opinion, the best thing about our ‘field trip’ was the elephants. Did you know that the elephant’s scientific name is the elephantidae!! The average elephant lives about 44.4 human years. That’s about ⅓ less than the average human  lives.  The average elephant weighs 5,500 kgs or 12125.4 lbs!! The usual elephant is about 9 feet tall.  Elephants eat roots,grasses,fruit, bark. An adult elephant can consume up to 300 lbs. of food in a single day. This is why I think elephants were the best thing in our field trip.
