Elephants are the largest land animals alive, and almost everything about them runs on family. A herd is guided by its oldest female, the matriarch, whose memory of water holes can save the group in a drought. Calves stay close for years, learning to use a trunk that holds over forty thousand muscles. This puzzle gathers eleven words tied to how elephants live, feed, and survive the threat of poaching for ivory.
