Animals fact

Elephants are one of the few mammals that cannot jump.

The details

Adult elephants are too heavy and their leg bones point straight down, without the springy ankles other mammals use to push off. They can still walk fast, reaching around 25 km/h, while always keeping at least one foot on the ground.
