Elephant Coloring Pages

These elephant coloring pages capture the essence of natural wildlife scenes, but they also include playful animals, holiday fun and whimsical explorations.

Elephant Habitats, Trunks and Herd Life

Elephants are the largest land animals in the world, and their size is obvious in these elephant coloring pages. These amazing creatures have large ears, thick legs and long trunks that allow us to identify them instantly.

An elephant’s trunk is used for breathing, smelling, drinking, grasping and lifting objects. Elephants use their trunks to touch and communicate with one another.

Elephants can live in forests, grasslands and savannas where they can find enough water to drink and enough vegetation to eat. The trails, streams and safari backdrops in these elephant coloring pages provide some of the interesting habitats where elephants can be found.

Female elephants and their young ones usually move about in herds with one older female guiding the group. Young elephants learn by observing the herd. Other elephants in a herd often help to care for the younger ones.

Dumbo, Tantor, circus scenes and holiday themes bring a sense of wonder to these coloring pages, but we have also included some realistic elements such as large ears, trunks and strong legs.
