Elephants are the largest land mammals

Elephants are the largest land mammals, known for their trunks, large ears, and intelligence. There are three species: African savanna, African forest, and Asian elephants. They use their trunks for drinking, grabbing objects, and communication. Living in herds led by a matriarch, elephants are herbivores that help shape ecosystems. However, they face threats from habitat loss and poaching, making conservation efforts crucial for their survival.
