Core Elephant Needs. Like most animals, elephants require food, water, shelter and veterinary care, but elephants have other core needs that are sometimes overlooked, ignored or dismissed. Space. In the wild, elephants inhabit very large home ranges and walk considerable distances every day. Their home ranges can be from several hundred sq km up to 5,000 sq km or more in size. For most people, this huge space is difficult to imagine.
In fact, it is almost impossible for an elephant to survive if its trunk becomes damaged. Although most mammals use the nose solely for air intake, elephants use its trunk for water storage, and for sucking up mud and dust to clean or cool off.A typical elephant on average can hold about 4 litres of water.n elephant calf can lift about 4.5% of its own weight with its trunk. Or, in the case of an elephant bull it ranges around 270kg. Please keep in mind that all elephants are individuals, and each has differing capacities from a strength perspective.
