The collection presents typical hunting scenes from various regions of the world. The first coin in the series was the "Duck Hunting" coin, the second is the ¿Elephant Hunting¿.The African elephant is the biggest land animal. It can measure 4 meters height and weighs between 7.5 ¿ 8 tons. The difference between the African elephant and the Asian elephant is that the former has much bigger ears and a different head shape. There are two subspecies of the African Elephant: African savanna elephant and African bush elephant. The physiology of the African elephant is amazing. These elephants are said to be very intelligent animals. An elephant¿s brain weighs about 6 000 g (about four times more than a human brain). This mighty giant has to eat about 400 kg of plant fare daily. His trunk ¿ the most versatile organ in the whole animal world ¿ is very useful while eating. It serves not only for reaching food but also for sniffing, touching things, making sounds and caressing. The elephant moves quickly (up to 40 km per hour), it treads silently and it steps unusually delicately on the tips of its fingers. ____________________________________________________  Feel free to e-mail me with any questions.
