An elephant serves as the mascot for the University of Alabama's Crimson Tide primarily due to its association with strength, intelligence, and loyalty, traits that resonate with the school's athletic spirit. The elephant mascot, named "Big Al," was introduced in the 1970s and has since become a beloved symbol of school pride. The choice also reflects the university's Southern heritage, as elephants are often seen as majestic and powerful creatures. Overall, the elephant embodies the determination and resilience of Alabama's sports teams.
Big Al the Elephant.
