African Elephant
|
|---|
Elephants need to consume about 4-6% of their bodyweight every day and must therefore eat for about 16 hours a day. Their digestion is very poor so they eat everything including bark, leaves, grass and shrubs.

|
African Buffalo
|
|---|
Buffalo may look like rather large cows, but they are one of the most fearsome animals of Africa - especially if they are wounded. An adult male weighs in the region of 600 kilos (1,320 pounds), and if attacked he will turn the tables and pursuit.
