Asian Elephant - Habitat, Characteristics, and Conservation Efforts
The Asian elephant, with its distinctive gray color, inhabits tropical evergreen lowland forests. Weighing around 11,000 lbs, these gentle giants can grow up to 21 feet long and 10 feet tall. Their diet consists of leaves, bark, fruit, grasses, and herbs, and they commonly face predators such as humans. With a population of about 5,505, Asian elephants are endangered due to hunting and habitat destruction. Conservation efforts involve preserving them in special sanctuaries. Interesting facts include their tiptoe walking and using trunks as snorkels for swimming.
