e. I'’’m Martin.
And I'’’m Chris and we'’’re on our way to meet up with a creature with some incredible Creature Power.
It'’’s the largest land animal on the planet, a powerhouse of a creature.
With probably the most amazing nose on Earth.
(Thump) (Engine revving) Oh, no, we'’’re stuck!
Perfect, because there she is.
Hey, Shiva!
What are you doing?
Breaking branches again?
Oh, wow.
Whoa, this is an African elephant.
They can get up to 7 tons in weight.
That'’’s as much as two garbage trucks.
With the strength to rip apart branches with her nose, also known as her trunk.
What an amazing trunk.
She'’’s eating the branches like pretzels.
For an elephant it'’’s a snack, a delicious snack.
Oh, she just chewed that off like it was nothing!
An elephant can use its trunk in over 20 different ways, from giving themselves a drink on a hot, dusty day, to communicating with their young.
And her nose is as long as a human is tall.
Wow, now that is some long nose.
The nose that'’’s like a hand.
Now that'’’s the power of the elephant.
Imagine if we had the elephant'’’s power of strength.
And a trunk that can do so much.
BOTH: What if?
