3 Answers. 1  The African elephant, given it's size, is the largest living land mammal on Earth. 2  The average weight for the Asian elephant is between 2.5 and 5 tons. 3  African elephants are the largest of all land animals, adult males weighing between 1,800 and 6,300 kg (2 and 7 tons/ 4,000 and 14,000 lb.).
The largest elephant ever recorded was an African elephant, according to the San Diego Zoo. It was 24,000 lbs. (10,886 kg) and 13 feet (3.96 m) tall from its feet to its shoulders. When it gets too hot, African elephants will suck water into their trunks and then blow it back out to shower themselves with a cool mist.
