Elephants Mature at Twenty and Run at Twenty MPH
Burmese observers note elephants mature by age twenty and can reach speeds up to twenty miles per hour when running. They live about seventy five years, show signs of aging around forty, and use their trunks with finger-like projections. The animal’s gait is a waddling shuffle rather than a true run or gallop.
