2. Elephants: The Amazing Animals
Elephants are the largest land animals on earth.
They have the largest brains of any mammal. Elephants
talk to each other. Researchers have discovered more
than 50 different types of calls that they use to
communicate with each other. Their trunks are strong
enough to pick up trees but sensitive enough to pick up a
flower. They use them as tools to sweep paths, to scratch
themselves, to swat flies, and to draw in the dirt. They are
good swimmers and use their trunks like snorkels.
They live together in family groups.
They help each other when in trouble. They join together
to care for and rescue their young.
