Elephant Senses: Taste


Elephant teeth Elephants love to eat so much that they spend 20 hours per day snacking and eating.

They can consume 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.
