African elephants are among the largest land animals on earth today. The bull of the savannah elephant (Loxodonta africana) can weigh more than 6 tons. They are opportunistic herbivores, living in matriarchal groups: the females live in groups, led by the oldest or largest cow. They are generally family groups, and females stay with a group all their lives. As soon as there are more than ten animals in a group, the group will split up. Friendly bonds are maintained between related females from different groups. Males live in separate male groups.
