African Elephants are the largest members of the elephant family and thus the
largest land animals. They have four toes on their front feet and five on their
hind feet. African Elephants live in large herds which are divided into smaller
families. The eldest and largest female is the matriarch and leads the others on
the endless quest for food and water.
Fun fact: The elephant's trunk is a unique and very sensitive organ. It is used
to smell, touch and grip.

Schleich products are developed with the assistance of parents, teachers and children and are therefore especially designed for children’s hands. The design of Schleich products is as realistic and naturalistic as possible. This enables children to experience the large variety of nature – from domestic animals on a farm to wild animals in the jungle.
