About Bull Elephant

---

 A bull elephant refers to a mature, adult male elephant. These  elephants are known for their large size and significant role in  elephant society, particularly in leading younger males and maintaining  the structure of male herds 

 African bush elephant bulls  can reach an average shoulder height of 3.04-3.36 meters (10.0-11.0 ft)  and weigh between 5,200-6,900 kg (11,500-15,200 lb), according to Wikipedia. The  largest recorded bull was even larger, reaching a height of 3.96 meters  (13.0 ft) and an estimated weight of 10,400 kg (22,900 lb) 

Role in Society:  Bull elephants play a vital  role in leading younger males and are often seen at the front of male  groups, suggesting they possess valuable knowledge and experience. Studies suggest they have a similar role in male society as matriarchs in female herds 

Role in Society:  The loss of older bull  elephants due to poaching or hunting can have significant negative  impacts on the social structure and stability of elephant herds
