Good point. The 2 elephants alone would need something like 150 tons of food to sustain them for a year:

When full-grown, these huge herbivores can consume anywhere from 300-500 pounds of vegetation per day.

Here at The Toledo Zoo, our elephants eat hay (2,000 bales per year), grain, fruits and vegetables.
