Elephant Bath!

Ever day  we wash the elephants. I like putting it down their trunk and they blow it on their back - and me! They need a wash because they get very very hot and dusty.


An elephant needs 200kg of food every day - so they spend a long time eating!! They cut long grass and pineapple leaves to feed them.

  2. The elephants are trained (called 'domestic' elephants) and have been working with people all their lives. Mine is getting used to me now and I am getting braver. x
