Wise Elephant
This “wise elephant” is a large cast bronze piece that sits on a park bench allowing visitors to sit down for a moment and wonder just what he is thinking.
Did you know?
? The African Elephant is the largest animal walking the Earth. They use their trunk for communication, smelling, breathing, trumpeting, drinking, and handling objects. Their large ears allow them to radiate excess heat. Their tusks are actually upper incisor teeth and grow throughout their lifetime. Baby elephants actually lose their teeth/tusks just like humans! African Elephants are highly intelligent and have a very long memory. These elephants are herbivores and eat large amounts of roots, grasses, fruit, and bark.
