Whoa! Who are you?
I am an African elephant.
We're the biggest land mammals on earth.
You live in Africa, right?
Yes! We live in grasslands and rain forests.
Some African elephants live in deserts.
How do you stay cool?
We spray our backs with water.
Then we throw dust on the water.
We use our trunks for that.
Your trunk is amazing!
Yes! We breathe and drink with our trunks.
We can grab food with them too.
What do you eat?
We like leaves, bark, roots, fruit, and grass.
We're big. So we eat a lot!
Wow! Look at your tusks!
Our tusks are long teeth.
We use them to dig for roots.
Do you have any enemies?
Most animals leave us alone.
But some people hunt us for our tusks.
I'm hungry again.
See you later.
Good-bye, African Elephant!
