It can be used to lift over 250kg but despite all that power, the trunk is very dexterous and can be used to pick up something as small as a jellybean, and with remarkable gentleness as it can grasp a potato crisp without breaking it!

An elephant’s trunk is an incredible tool, capable of absorbing and storing approximately 10-12 liters of water at a time. A fully grown elephant’s trunk, measuring about 6-7 feet long, plays a vital role in their hydration. But can an elephant drink water directly through its trunk? The answer is no. Instead, elephants use their trunks to suck up water, which they then spray into their mouths to drink. This fascinating process showcases their adaptability and the functionality of their trunks.

An elephant rubbing her eyes with her trunk is a gentle and natural behaviour, often seen when she feels tired, itchy, or bothered by dust and insects. With remarkable control, she lifts her trunk and uses its tip to carefully wipe or scratch around her eyes, much like a person using their hand. This simple action shows just how sensitive her skin is and how incredibly precise and flexible her trunk can be. At the very tip of the trunk is a small finger-like projection that works almost like a t
