It is a genus of elephants in the family Elephantidae, named by Baron Georges Cuvier in 1825. African elephants are the largest mammals on land, with males and females exhibiting a binary sex. Adult African male elephants are taller than 3.5 meters and can reach a maximum height of 4.1 meters. The weight is approximately 2.7 to 6 tons, with females being smaller than males and the heaviest recorded being 13.5 tons. Their longest recorded tooth weighs 102.7 kilograms.
