Okay, so when you think about an elephant as a whole, there’s definitely nothing funny about it. On the contrary - it is such a majestic and wise animal that the only thing you can feel is awe. However, try and think about an elephant noting only the single parts it is composed of. For instance, tree trunk legs. How on earth does one walk on tree trunk legs?!? Then, the teeny tiny mouth of an animal the size of a double-decker bus (if the elephant is a small one). And boy, let’s not forget the wriggly tube of a nose/mouth it has! See, now an elephant is totally hilarious, and these elephant jokes that we’ve gathered in our latest article are now as funny as ever! 

Of course, some of these cute animal jokes will talk about elephants being like the wisest animals on planet Earth; it’s just too great a part of the lore surrounding them to be dismissed entirely. However, these jokes about elephants won’t dismiss their clumsiness either. So, a well-rounded compendium of funny animal jokes, indeed. And you know what, it is exactly how we like it with our animal jokes - a bit of friendly mockery, a bit of acknowledging their strengths, and a whole lotta love for each of them! 

So, ready to check out the funny elephant jokes we’ve rounded up in this article? Well then, scroll on down below and take a look! Once you’ve skimmed through them, give the best jokes your vote and share this article with your friends.

Why do elephants swing their trunks ...? To get the ants out. To look cool. Why did the elephant cross the road ...? To get away from the circus. To buy a lottery ticket. To get away from the autograph seekers. To get to the Lion's Birthday Party. To buy a pair of sun glasses so it could blend in with the giraffes. What do you call an elephant hiding in a tree ...? Dangerous. An accident waiting to happen. A rare occurrence. All of the above. An elephant goes into a bar. The bartender asks - hey elephant, how did you get in here ..? The elephant answers - through the door. Why don't elephants drive race cars ...? Because they can't drive. They won't fit. They don't make helmets for elephants. All of the above.

    Elephants can actually swim quite well and use their trunk as a snorkel. Both India and Sri Lanka have dedicated units in their navies to help individuals who go for a swim and get lost when they lose sight of land.

    How do you put a giraffe in the fridge? Open the door, take out the elephant, put in the giraffe, and close the door. The lion is the king of the jungle and decided to throw a birthday party. Only 1 animal had the guts to not show up. Who was it? The giraffe. The fridge doesn't have handles on the inside. The giraffe calls a repairman to let them out of the fridge. Along the way, they come to a crocodile infested river. The locals tries as hard as they can to keep them from swimming the river but the repairman does it anyway and saves the giraffe. How did they survive swimming across the river? All the crocodiles were at the lion's birthday party.
