Are the skin of elephants really tough?

Rough (to the touch) would have probably been a better choice of words. I probably adopted this sentence without thinking about it much. I've never tried to chew on elephant skin and neither have I worn it as a sort of armor... so... I guess I don't really know. Anyone else wanna chime in?
