Koala 1/4 oz Platinum 1989PROOF
The average lifespan of an elephant is about 65-70 years in the wild and up to 80 years in captivity. Cases of elephants reaching more than 80 years have been recorded.
The oldest fossils of African elephants date back to the middle Pliocene.
Although the African elephant is actually a savannah animal, it is able to adapt to other conditions, allowing it to live in areas south of the Sahara.
However, it only settles where there are sources of drinking water and places to bathe. The largest recorded elephant punch measured 3.1 m and weighed almost 105 kg."
