He thinks he&#8217;s the last of his species. He then meets Ellie, a female mammoth and thought his species could be saved. However, Ellie thinks she&#8217;s a possum and funny stuff happens. She later realizes she&#8217;s a mammoth, and Manny goes off and says maybe it&#8217;s their responsibility to keep their species from extinction. She gets mad.<\/p>\n<p>So on and so on. The real enemies, some shark and alligator type creatures were easily destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, they see a whole herd of mammoths, so the &#8220;responsibility&#8221; to recreate the species no longer existed, but Manny still wanted to be with Ellie. The End.<\/p>\n<p>The only fun thing were the water slides. Those were pretty neat.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I always thought male elephants were the only elephants with tusks. But according to <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Elephant#Tusks\">Wikipedia<\/a>: <em>Both male and female African elephants have large tusks that can reach over 10 ft (3 m) in length and weigh over 200 lb (90 kg). In the Asian species, only the males have large tusks. Female Asians have tusks which are very small or absent altogether. Asian males can have tusks as long as the much larger Africans, but they are usually much slimmer and lighter; the heaviest recorded is 86 lb (39 kg).<\/em> I guess Ellie having tusks isn&#8217;t that weird anymore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Animation was pretty good, but not superb or beyond my imagination.
