Alphabet Crazy Challenge ~ Elephant, the largest terrestrial animal

For the Alibb’s Alphabet Crazy Challenge, I  contributing the largest terrestrial animal. We certainly all know the great elephant. He is not only big and powerful. The elephant is also the friendliest animal among us. She lives a quiet life in a family community, and we know elephant loners. There are very few of these wonderful giants on Earth today. They are endangered by black ivory hunters and collectors. Every year, a huge number of these large, peaceful, friendly and loving giants die under illicit shots because of their tusks. An elephant, a very calm, loving and sensible animal, has always been in contact with humans. The man used it for battles, work and board games and parades. Today he has lost his job in the military, but most of all in Asian countries it is used for work, cargo transfer, for playing the famous elephant pole, we see him in parades, circuses, playing with children.

  1. Always enjoy watching BBC films about wild nature with elephants. It was very interesting to know about floating elephants of the Andaman Islands. When food (or potential pairs) is scarce, Andaman elephants head to the sea and swim to other Islands.

  2. when I lived in Thailand they used to talk about White Elephants. They, white elephants, were always the property of the king. I got to see one in the Dusit zoo and it was amazing.
