Tuberculosis is a chronic disease of the respiratory system that usually enters the body through the trunk, the windpipe [trachea], and the lungs. Tuberculosis is a bacterial disease (Mycobacterium spp.) that can infect both elephants and humans.reatment: 1  Immediately separate the elephant from other animals in the herd. 2  Take the elephant to a shady, clean, and quiet place. 3  Feed the elephant with highly nutritious food that is easy to swallow, such as ripe bananas or other fresh fruit.
An elephant may grow up to 24 of these teeth, each weighing in at about 9 pounds. Elephants typically have 4 sets of these teeth at any given time. In cases where the teeth may get stuck and donât easily fall out, the elephant will chew on tree trunks and old tires to loosen them up. Once this cycle is complete, and the elephant can no longer grow any new teeth, the elephant dies from starvation.
