Elephant: body parts in 3D

About this simulation

Explore Elephant body parts in an interactive 3D model. Rotate, select labels, learn each part’s role, and play a matching game for primary science. Head: The large head protects the brain and supports the trunk and tusks. Ears: Large ears collect sound and help release body heat. Eyes: The eyes help an elephant see nearby objects and movement. Trunk: The flexible trunk is used to breathe, smell, touch, pick up food and draw up water. Tusks: Tusks are long teeth used for tasks such as digging, moving objects and defence. Body: The large body holds organs and is covered by thick, sensitive skin. Legs: Strong, column-like legs support the elephant's heavy body. Feet: Broad feet have soft internal cushions that help spread the elephant's weight. Tail: The tail helps brush away insects.

Learning objectives

1Identify the main parts of the Elephant.
2Connect each part with its function.
3Match labels to the correct parts of the 3D model.

Questions teachers ask

How can students explore this 3D model?

Drag to rotate, scroll or pinch to zoom, and select a body part to read its name and function. The labelled list also supports keyboard navigation.

How does the label-matching game work?

Choose Match labels. Connect each label to its matching dot on the model. Drag a line, or tap a label and then a dot. Correct connections stay visible until every label is matched.

Is this a detailed medical or biological model?

This is a simplified model for learning the main external parts. It does not show every structure, internal anatomy, or natural variation.
