elephant egg???

Aren't elephants mammals? Geez, I've screwed the pooch if they aren't (no personal comments, please). The only mammal, to my knowledge, that propagates via eggs is the curious duckbill platypus.

But, hey, maybe someone can make a buck selling elephant eggs, right on the carny midway, next to Gork's Global Warming or Cooling (pick one) booth.

Yes, and, like all mammals, the female produces eggs, the male produces sperm, the sperm fertilizes the egg, and the fertilized egg develops into the young, either inside the mother, or outside (platypuses and echidnas).
