Did you know that male elephants, known as bulls, have quite an impressive "tool" for finding love? It's called a trunk, and it's not just for sniffing flowers! 17 - When a male elephant is in the mood for some sweet lovin', he shows off his charm by flaunting his herculean size and magnificent tusks. Talk about impressing the ladies with style! - But it's the female elephants, aptly called cows, who have the final say in the matter. They are highly selective, looking for a mate who can provide protection and, of course, some serious daddy skills. Sorry, not every tusk will do! - Now, here's where it gets interesting and, let's admit it, a little comical too. The courtship ritual of elephants includes a dance that seems like a combination of a flamenco and a funky chicken routine. Who knew elephants had such mad dancing Skills! - Once the mating ritual is complete (and if everything goes as planned), the baby-making magic happens! But hold your horses... or should we say elephants? The gestation period for elephant babies is approximately 22 months! It seems these little cuties take their sweet time cooking up a plan for world domination. - And just like the proud parents they are, elephant moms have an incredibly strong bond with their babies. They are protective, loving, and give some of the best elephant hugs out there! So, there you have it — the hysterically wonderful world of elephant mating! These gentle giants know how to mix romance, dance moves, and an incredible journey towards family. Love truly comes in all shapes and sizes. especiallv when it's big, beautiful, and elephant-sized!

Any other tree that is wounded by elephant can repair the damage only from the sides of the wound. The baobab regenerates the whole wound at the same time – it does not have to work from the outsides in. That makes them very successful as a tree.  The size of the tree varies, it can shrink and expand depending on its needs. In the dry season the trunk shrinks and when water is abundant, the trunk expands to support more water storage. Being so massive you would think that these trees are almost indestructible, but there is another giant in the bush that can cause great damage; the African elephant.  Elephants know that baobabs store water and especially in the dry season when water is scarce they look for baobab trees to quench their thirst. The bark of the baobab is soft enough for an elephant to poke a hole in the bark. Then it is easy t...
