How would you determine the volume of an elephant?

To determine the volume of an elephant, you can use the displacement method. This involves submerging the elephant in a large body of water and measuring the volume of water displaced, which corresponds to the elephant's volume. However, given the size and weight of an elephant, a more practical approach is to estimate its volume using its dimensions—length, height, and width—applying geometric formulas for approximating the shape to calculate the volume. For a more accurate estimate, you could apply specific formulas or models developed for large mammals.
