do elephants get boogers in their trunks? it sounds unhygienic for them to grab water in their trunk to pour in their mouths to drink

you are constantly swallowing your own mucus and boogers
science explained it a long time ago.
Bros I'm pretty confident I could take an Elephant in a fist fight
Their trunks are pure muscle, they could beat your entire body in an arm wrestle using their trunk.
Right but in a fight it would also be a test of dexterity and speed. I know I could dodge it's trunk and punch it to death.
Bullshit, their trunks are incredibly dextrous, and they could also just step on you. You aren't going to punch a building sized animal to death.
The size of the animal is irrelevant maybe even a detriment at very large sizes. What matters is the strength of its bones you only need to hit the same spot a few times and then the bones will collapse into the lungs and it will die while you simply stand back
Mucus Isn't really bad for you. You swallow mucus every day.
So why did the tiny elephants disappear, while the ones we have now survived?
Was that made out of something to look like a candy cane or did they give it a giant block of sugar? That can't be healthy?
it's a giant fucking elephant anon i think a block of sugar wouldn't be too bad for it
is this really the biggest land mammal? this one probably isnt fully grown but still, it would be cool if we had something like a hundred times larger (though i know gravity probably wouldnt allow it, that bitch)
Biggest land mammals were these guys topping out at 5 meters or 16 feet
feels pretty cool that we wiped these fuckers out without metallurgy
Once we had fire there was nothing any of those suckers could do tbh
>find 2 bones
>draw the whole animal
well the pic is misleading. The Indricotherium is actually known from a lot of different bones, unfortunately most of them are found in Pakistan and it's impossible to properly excavate and compare the remains, for obvious reasons. There are several teeth, pieces of skull and other stuff that gives a rough idea of what it may have looked like. Dunno about the elephant, but leg bones are a good indicator of how big something was.
Why, are Pakis getting uppity?
IIRC, they alternate between destroying fossils because they think they're satanic, and selling them to the chinese to be ground up and made into magic(tm) viagra, and they also tend to kill westerners and especially scientists who come poking around.
Mammals do not have the right bone structure to grow super large outside of water. Dinosaurs got as large as they did because their bones are full of holes and thus very light.
your ass is full of holes, shut up homosexual
Anon there have been plenty of megafauna.
Imagine standing next to pic related in life. Shit would be a different order of magnitude from any animal we ever encountered on earth. Literally the size of a building or a bridge or something. Imagine being lifted up by it to the top of a 6 story building like it's nothing for the creature. Imagine cleaning the animal with a fire hose like you'd clean a dog with a garden hose. It'd be literally like being alongside a baleen whale but it's on land.
imagine how big its shits were
I mean aren't blue whales bigger?
>giving a herbivore a hard sugar stick
>'phants with tooth problems regularly die from the needed anesthesia to perform the dental treatments
why are women always like this
BIG CRONCH!
same energy
why’s bro got a chain?
bitches love chains
hes a smart elephant
>Unhygienic
>Has never had a snotty nose while out somewhere you don't have access to tissues or water to clean up and was forced to either swallow snot or let it run down your face like a 4 year old.
>he doesn't know how to do a snot rocket
>Has never given themselves an ear infection from launching snot rockets too hard
I've always called that a farmer's handkerchief.
Did your snot rocket bounce off a wall and ricochet into your ear?
chömp :DDDD
How big are those fucking pumpkins?
Those are normal sized pumpkins, it's an optical illusion the elephant is actually very small.
There is no way the one on the right isn't absolutely massive
Notice how they are collapsing under their own weight. Those are huge pumpkins.
I like to think there was a county fair and they took the biggest pumpkin winners and just donated them to a local zoo.
That is samwise gamgee as hell
i love them so much
I love watching baby elephants. They have so little dexterity and almost no control of their trunks yet.
>tfw no miniature elephant breeds that can be kept as pets
it's not fair
>ywn keep this as a pet
It hurts so much
they look like they can fuck you up pretty bad
i wonder how fast they were
wolves and dingos can fuck you up pretty good as well and we bred those into some great companions just imagine what we could with a small elephant as framework it would be amazing, diet is the only worry in all honesty
Elephants are already given jobs like they are living forklifts, so they would be good companions. An elephant would be much better than a dog at bringing you a beer.
we ironically have to make them stupider though their a bit too smart for your average joe if we wanna go that route however ive always thought that there should be some sort of license to obtain for you to own pets especially certain kind of pets so if that could be implemented we could have smart lovely little elephant fellas.
and regarding the tusk issue breeding that out should be piss easy as their already doing it themself right now not at their own volition of course but you know
>ywn keep this as a pet
That would be like keeping a wild boar on steroids
Just make sure it’s a female
It's fine, just be careful when they're in musth
They disappeared recently too. Can't they be cloned?
We should revive them, not just mammoths
the female is just about the right height
for what?
elephants are my favorite animal and i always wanted a dog sized one
it's not fair
If you had an elephant (even if mini) it would drain your money
it's hard enough keeping a pig, an pig that can pick up items as a pet sounds like a nightmare.
Why?
Elephants are intelligent and curious, they would be neat.
>it sounds unhygienic
Where do you think your post nasal drip goes?
Test
Not boogers but if they get a legitimate sinus infection they do have a lot of mucus.
T. Ex elephant handler
why'd you quit?
No but they did like to play with me, they liked to play with my tits which made me embarrassed and uncomfortable because I'm overweight. I would get so upset that I would cry, and I just had enough.
why do you come to an innocent board like Wauf and LARP and ERP you homo, go away
When he says "tits" he means his man-boobs kek
Post tits
Just lose weight. It's literally not that hard.
Why do you choose to be overweight if it makes you unhappy? Yes being overweight is a choice, and it's very easy to lose weight.
did you get to play with elephants? are they like dogs? i read that they have very high intelligence and empathy
haha look at him
