Answer:

An elephant pregnancy lasts around 22 months, meaning that new born baby elephants are not small! A baby elephant is called a calf and can weigh between 200 and 300 lbs and stand about 3 feet (1 m) tall.

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

63 kg = 36 * 2.2 pounds

= 138.6 pounds.

Multiplying this by 2.5:

138.6 * 2.5

= 346.5 pounds

The calf weighs 310 pounds so that is not 2.5 times as Sarah's weight.
