An elephant uses its trunk like a hand. It breaks off branches from trees and shrubs with its trunk. It brings food to its mouth with its trunk. Elephants eat leaves, twigs, flowers, grass, and other plants.
An elephant drinks with its trunk. The trunk sucks up water from a stream or water hole. Then the elephant squirts the water into its mouth.
An elephant uses its trunk to take a shower. The elephant squirts water from its trunk over its thick, wrinkled skin. Sometimes an elephant wades into water over its head. Then the underwater elephant sticks its trunk above the water like a snorkel and breathes in air.
