That really is a beautiful elephant, love the colour in that photo.
I could be an elephant, my memory is good, and I've got huge feet. Though I might not be able to manage their climate.
Perhaps a mammoth instead. Yep, I'd like that.
The rust color is actually from the red clay in the soil, or so my Mom told me ...
Elephants have always been one of my absolute favorites. They are majestic.
Yeah, I know the colour is from the dirt. Still beautiful.
Takes time to create such beauty, no wonder the gestation period on those creatures is so long.. LOL
To think people still try to hunt them.... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....
Oops. Knew that did you?
I don't think I could handle being pregnant for that long. 9 months was long enough for me ...
22 months is a long time, but on the upside, their menstrual cycle is 3-4 months long, so they get less cack with that.
The downside seems to be that the birth weight of baby elephants is something 250-350lbs... :S
Bet they all hope they've got child bearing hips...
Ummm ... What exactly is the definition of cack?
cack... umm... perhaps it's british english slang only...
Means 'shit'. Apologies for my language.
Aaah ... I am enlightened.
:)
