An interesting animal

Hello everyone! We are almost finished this semester and today is the turn of the blog number nine, and for this blog I have to write about an interesting, amazing or scary animal…

Well I think that the elephant is the most amazing animal ever! I love elephants, especially elephant’s babies; I think that this animal is interesting and amazing because it is the biggest mammal in the entire word. Also elephants are considered majestic; in many cultures consider it a sacred animal.

Elephants are pacific animals; they don’t attack anyone unless they are in danger and must defend themselves.

The elephants have a characteristic "nose" called a trunk, thanks to it they have the best smell in the world; they raise it in the air to perceive different smells.

This elephant trunk serves for many things besides breathing and sniffing like for example they use it to collect food, either from the ground or from the height. Also they use it to suck water, which they then put in their mouths to drink or pour into their bodies to cool themselves.

The elephants have two huge teeth characteristic of them composed of ivory and found in the upper part of their jaw. These teeth are actually tusks and can measure up to 3 meters in length, and weigh about 130 kilograms

Elephants live in places with high temperatures and lakes around like Africa, in this place is very common to look elephants everywhere.
I hope to travel to Africa or some country in the middle east one day and ride an elephant or take a bath with him in some lake.
