Are animals right or left 'handed'? - Divisions by zero

And if so what are the ratios? Are they as dominantly righties as humans? I mean donyhey have a handedness

I remember seeing somewhere that you can know the handedness of an elephant by looking at its tusks. The smaller tusk is the one that is used the most.

Correct. Elephant tusks are used for (amongst other things) digging, and on most of them, the right side tusk is more worn down.
