Product Description
Our plastic African elephant skull is made of slightly flexible plastic and measures 2 1/2 inches from front to back. It is a great tool for young people to learn easily about comparative anatomy so they can understand how the bones inside an animal look and how its skull structure contributes to the animal's appearance.
African elephants are elephants of the genus Loxodonta. One species of African elephant, the bush elephant, is the largest living terrestrial animal, while the forest elephant is the third-largest. Their thickset bodies rest on stocky legs, and they have concave backs. Their large ears enable heat loss. The upper lip and nose form a trunk. The trunk acts as a fifth limb, a sound amplifier, and an important method of touch.
