Elephant

There are two types of Elephants, the African, listed as vulnerable, and the Asian, listed as endangered. You can tell the difference between the two types by looking at the size of their ears. African elephants are generally larger and have very large and pronounced ears. The asian elephants are smaller and also have noticeably smaller ears.
The biggest threat to both populations is being poached for their ivory tusks, meat, and hides. Other threats include habitat loss and conflicts with the locals.
