Another addition has arrived at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, this time a male African elephant. Born early Monday morning, (Sept 26) the yet-unnamed calf was filmed by officials from the Safari Park, as his mother keeps a watchful eye on the newborn. Average pregnancy-to-term for an elephant is 22 months.

As an adult, this male African elephant will reach heights of 10-13 ft, weighing up to 10-13k pounds. Another interesting fact is that African elephant brains are larger than any land animal; even the largest whales, which have a mass 20x larger than an elephant, have a brain just twice the size. www.sandiego.com
