Surprisingly, elephant calves can run at 25 mph, although technically, because they always have one foot on the ground they are not running! They are also good swimmers.

For the first four years of life they need their Mother for milk, and re-assurance. In fact, for added re-assurance, they suck their trunks in the same way human babies suck their thumbs.

Your elephant is beautifully presented in a printed box containing a signed certificate of authenticity. The bronze is engraved with the sculptor’s signature and limited edition number, matching the certificate enclosed.
