2. Elephants: The Amazing Animals

Elephants are the largest land animals on earth. They have the largest brains of any mammals.
Elephants talk to each other. Researchers have discovered more than 50 different types of
calls that they use to communicate with each other. Their trunks are strong enough to pick up
flowers. They use them as tools to sweep paths, to scratch themselves, and to swat flies. They
are good swimmers and use their trunks like snorkels. They live together in family groups.
They help each other when in trouble. They join together to care for and rescue their young.

3. GORILLAS
Gorillas are the largest of the primates. A male gorilla can be 180 centimeters tall and can
weigh 200 kilograms. Gorillas are very strong but they do not often fight. In fact they are
peaceful animals. Gorillas live in small family groups of about 15. In a group there is one
strong, older male, some young males, and a few females with their babies. They move slowly
around a large area of jungle eating leaves and bushes.
In some ways gorillas are very like humans. When they are happy, they laugh and wave their
arms. When they are angry, they heat their cheats. When they are sad, they cry. But they cry
quietly, without any tears. Unfortunately, people hunt and kill gorillas. They also cut down and
hunt their trees. There are now only about 10.000 gorillas left in the world.
