Museum Provenance

There is only one family of Proboscidea alive today: Elephantidae, which has two herbivorous species, the African and Asiatic (Indian) elephants. Elephants are recognizable by their great size, huge head and ear flaps, a very long, mobile trunk, bulky body and four pillar-like legs. Hundred of mammals, including elephants, are exhibited in life-like settings of the Kenneth E. Behring Family Hall of Mammals at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History.

Every Smithsonian purchase will arrive with a museum provenance card explaining how it is adapted from or inspired by an object or objects in our collection.
