The average lifespan of elephants in the wild is about 60 to 70 years. However, elephants in captivity have a slightly shorter lifespan and typically live to be 40 to 50 years old. The lifespan of elephants can be influenced by several factors, including genetics, habitat quality, and access to food and medical care.
