Baby elephants called " calves " have many cute habits.
They take a very long time to born and they are bigger than any other new born animals !!!
Baby elephants often use their trunk for comfort. Just like human babies suck their thumb, baby elephants suck their trunk !!!
Baby elephants weigh 90 - 130 kilos at birth making them heaviest newborns on land !!!
Mother elephant is pregnant for nearly 2 years !!! This long time helps the baby to grow fully and be strong enough to survive.
Baby elephants don't know how to use their trunk properly !!! In the beginning they swing it clumsily and sometimes even trip over it !!!
Baby elephants spend a loi of time playing with each other.
