Inscriptions read AFRICAN WILDLIFE, ELEPHANT, and 1/25 OZ AU 999.9.

History

African bush elephants are known for their complex communication systems. They use deep, low-frequency sounds that can travel through the ground over long distances, enabling communication between herds spread out across large areas. In addition to vocalizations, elephants also use visual cues and touch to share information with one another.
