The largest land mammal in the world, an elephant can survive in a variety of habitats because, though they are herbivores, they are able to eat a wide variety of different plants.

The quintessential wild mother, elephant females holds the record for longest pregnancy: a baby elephant grows in the womb for up to 22 months!
