For elephants, water is one of the savanna’s greatest treasures. They travel through endless dry areas to seek out the life-ensuring element, which plays a very special role for the pachyderms. Even the anatomy of the elephant shows, how special their relationship to the water is. So they are the only animals who do not have to bend down to the water by using their trunk to nourish and refresh.
