Do you love elephants? Do you often find yourself thinking that these large mammals are simply misunderstood? Are you looking for a way to make your personal checks more interesting? Why not try elephant bank checks?

Elephants are the largest living land animals. However, you shouldn't let their size fool you. They're not the big, scary animals that they sometimes appear to be. In fact, they are very sensitive creatures and most elephants will not attach unless they are being threatened or provoked. Many cultures consider them to be wise and good luck and in Asia they are celebrated for their intelligence and wisdom.

Elephants can live up to 70 years, although some have lived to be even older than that. Of course, they're known for their size, and no wonder! Elephant calves are born weighing about 260 pounds, meaning that these mammals are large from the moment that they're born. The largest elephant ever shot was nearly 24,000 pounds and lived in Angola.

While elephants do not have any normal predators, they are currently threatened due to human interaction. Many elephants are hunted for their ivory tusks and as an upshot, they are on the threshold of extinction. Although it's illegal to kill elephants for this reason, unfortunately the act still continues and ivory keeps getting sold on the black market.

Most of the elephant personal checks have four rotating images that manage to encapsulate these enormous, yet timorous creatures in their native habitats. Although you can also find elephant checks that contain a bit of humor in cartoonish portrayals, it's very hard to resist those checks that offer gorgeous photographic depictions of the wild creatures in their native lands.

The stately and marvelous African and Asian elephants are endangered and are celebrated all over the world for their elegance and beauty. They have been amazingly captured in a series of photographic images on some of the checks. Not just huge and arresting, they are also vulnerable and social creatures that are very misapprehended due to their size.

You can also buy checks that feature images of little elephants, too, in addition to other young wild animals as well. Baby elephants might be large, but they are still precious and playful. You will fall in love with the precious images on these checks and be happy to know that a portion of the proceeds go to supporting the World Wildlife Fund.

Most of the checks come with matching accessories that can be bought at an extra cost, too. Your new elephant checks will look fantastic, for example, with a matching leather checkbook cover or address labels.

Keep in mind that if you buy your checks online from a highly regarded website you can save as much as 50% off the price of your checks. As an added bonus, you will have a diversity of check series and designs to pick from, too. For the most part, you can count on getting your checks in the mail in about 5 days. This might be quicker than your bank got them to you in the past.
