Question

For about how many months do baby elephants eat both grass and mother's milk?

around 4 months

around 24 months

around 20 months

around 7 months

Answer 1

Around 20 months.

Calves start nibbling grass at about 4 months but continue to suckle until roughly 24 months, so they eat both for about 24 − 4 ≈ 20 months.
