| Elephants love to eat. In fact they
spend 20 hours per day snacking and eating.
They will eat some 200-300 kg of jungle foliage
per day and drink up to 100 litres of water.
They grow six sets of teeth during approximately
70 years of life. When the last row of teeth grinds down the animal
will generally die from hunger.
Contrary to popular belief in the west elephants
generally do not display a preference for buns or sweet cakes, preferring
jungle food.
