About 50 years in captivity, less in the wild (but the wild is more fun).

The average lifespan of an elephant is about 70 years although a few have been known to live longer. Of course elephants would live a lot longer if territorial boundaries were set for them and poaching ceased.

The elephant's gestation period is 22 months, the longest of any land animal. An elephant may live as long as 70 years, sometimes longer. The oldest elephant lived in the Zoo of Taipeh and died at the age of 86.
