Blood in Elephants Important features in elephants to Note: One of the largest mammals, elephants have very large organs to support its large size but proportionally compared to humans and other animals are not any bigger. The heart beats about 30 times per minute weighing approximately 12 to 21 kg depending on the age of the elephant. The amount of blood in an elephant is approximately 10% of its body weight. The large blood volume of elephants can increase the resistance to blood flow. Yet there are factors that help to negate these effects such as an increase in the flexibility of the eurethrocytes.
