If anyone tells you Elephants drink through their trunk, tell them they should try to drink through their nose π.
Elephants use their trunks like a large syringes. The fill them with water and then empty them into their mouth!
Depending on their size they can drink between 70 and 200 liters (18-50 Gal.) of water per day. The trunk will hold up to 10 liters (2.6 Gal.) to be deposited into the mouth at one go!
