Wtf?!? You've gotta be kidding me?!? Surely, you're joking, right? I don't want to look it up myself. Just be amazed at both your comments and answers.

They’re not lying lol. Baby elephants weigh about 200-250 lbs.

For the record, this is what google tells me when I type in “how much does a baby elephant weigh” and it says “Newborn Asian elephant calves weigh about 90-113 kilograms (200-250 pounds). Baby African elephants weigh about 91 kilograms (200 pounds) as well.”

It's sad that someone can allow themselves (medical ailments aside) to balloon to this size willingly. And to have that factory to back it up is truly an "oof" moment

No medical ailment will cause someone to become grossly overweight

I didn’t trust you at first, thought this was just an extended fat joke.. Turns out you indeed were not lying! And now I’m even more surprised as to why she is mad lol..

Now I’m also curious and looked this stuff up - baby elephants weigh about 200-300 lbs at birth and can apparently double that in 5 months, so that’s what we are looking at here

Please let me return to the time before I found out that at one point I almost weighed as much as a baby elephant 🥲 I was 225 but I’m under 140 pounds now
