I thought at first it would represent everything in elephants; elephant volumes, elephant hides, elephant-years &c.

Author here. I did consider doing that. But ended up using elephants for height and mass. I didn't think the volume or area of an elephant was a very useful comparison!
But I have added elephant comparisons for speed (charging), time (average lifespan) and energy (food consumption).
Me too. That was the reason I clicked. Now I’m disappointed to not know how many elephants.
I have added a note at the bottom of the page.
