This is a European forest elephant that lived in Europe during the Pleistocene. Along with the forest rhinoceros, "Merka" was one of the main ecosystem engineers in Europe.

An African forest elephant in Odzala-Kokoua National Park, Western Cuvette Department, Republic of Congo. Long listed as a subspecies, the African forest elephant is now considered to be its own species. Africa therefore has two different elephant species, the Africa savanna elephant and the African forest elephant. Does anyone know the main differences between these two species? #africanforestelephant #forestelephant #elephant #pachyderm #odzala #odzalakokoua #odzalakokouanationalpark #congo #africa #mammal #mammalsofinstagram #wildlife #wildlifephotography #wildlifeplanet #wildlifeaddicts #wildlifeconservation #animal #animallovers #nature #naturephotography #naturelover #naturephotographer #mammal #wildlife #animal #tropicalforest #rainforest #africageo #africanparks #AfricaGeoPhoto #yourshotphotographer (at Parc National d'Odzala-Kokoua, Congo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUtGM9YgwLF/?utm_medium=tumblr

The African Forest Elephant is the smallest of the 3 Elephant species & is found in central & western Africa. Its tusks are straight and point downward. It’s just as endangered as the other two species of Elephant. #forestelephant #elephant #loango #endangered #gabon #africa #safari #wildlife #photography #natgeo_africa #jwrimages (at Gabon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3o4xkrgKaK/?igshid=lnhs3jqavuq6

Elephants are the best! Stick up for them whenever you can-we do here @trunkupwines We are completely in LOVE and it’s not going away-#bekindtoelephants @dswt @forestelephantfoundation ・・・ Did you know that Forest elephants have the smallest family groups of all 3 elephant species? According to Andrea Turkalo (the leading expert in forest elephants) forest elephants have an estimated average family group of around 3 individuals. However it is not uncommon to observe family groups of up to 7, which is more akin to Savanna and Asian elephant family sizes. Further studies need to be conducted to find out why the groups are smaller however forest elephants are difficult to study as they spend up to 95% of their time in thick impenetrable forests meaning they cannot be observed from the air. Elephant families form the foundation of elephant society for all species of elephant! ----------------------------------- #elephants #elephant #forestelephant #forestelephants #rainforest #congobasin #conservation #africa #safari #centralafrica #westafrica #JoinTheHerd #wildlife #animals #nature #naturaleza #antipoaching #WorthMoreAlive #endextinction #research ------------------------------- Photo Credit: Martyn Colbeck Info: @elephantlisteningproject - http://www.birds.cornell.edu/brp/elephant/cyclotis/families.html https://www.instagram.com/p/BnaJcyzHhmu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1atvy5jnycbdf

Forest Elephant According to @wwf: “Forest elephants are an elusive subspecies of African elephants and inhabit the densely wooded rainforests of west and central Africa. Their preference for dense forest habitat prohibits traditional counting methods such as visual identification. Their population is usually estimated through "dung counts"—an analysis on the ground of the density and distribution of the feces. • Forest elephants are smaller than savanna elephants, the other African elephant subspecies. Their ears are more oval-shaped ears and their tusks are straighter and point downward (the tusks of savanna elephants curve outwards). There are also differences in the size and shape of the skull and skeleton. Forest elephants are found most commonly in countries with relatively large blocks of dense forest such as Gabon, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Cameroon and Central African Republic in central Africa and Côte d’Ivoire, Liberia, and Ghana in west Africa. • Forest elephants are found in dense forests and are essential for the germination of many rain forest trees. The seeds of these trees only germinate after passing through the elephant’s digestive tract.” • #elephant #forestelephant #endangeredspecies #art #drawing #ipadpro #applepencil #line #lines #blackandwhite #animals #illustration #quarantineart #2020 #meditativeart #adobe #adobefresco #fresco #apple #vector #vectorart #vectors #digital #digitaldrawing #california #scratchboard #woodcut @adobe @adobe.fresco @behance https://www.instagram.com/p/CCPA0mqAsix/?igshid=131kh9cr3jjvi

Greed and corruption fuels these decisions from country leaders. Won’t they be surprised when their KARMA comes home to roost, sooner than they think. @forestelephantfoundation ・・・ Botswana has recently lifted the ban on elephant hunting saying the move was justified by an increase in population as its impact on farmers’ livelihoods. Governments keep saying that hunting is justifiable to reduce over population of elephants but the reality is that fewer than 450,000 elephants remain according to the Great Elephant Census of 2016, and well down from the 3 to 5 million less than 100 years ago. Less than 100,000 of these elephants are forest elephants. In Africa there is one elephant per 20 000 people. While the human population is rapidly increasing, elephant numbers are plummeting. There are alternative conservation measures that can be implemented to minimise human wildlife conflict rather than killing elephants and promoting wildlife trade. We keep causing habitat loss and then we say there are too many elephants? Very shocking and disappointing decision by #Botswana————————————————————#conservation #elephants #endangered #forestelephants #trophyhunting #conservation #cruel #archaic #JoinTheHerd #elephant #forest #Africa #southafrica #namibia #zimbabwe #antipoaching #endextinction #banwildlifetrade #cites #iucn ———————————————————— PC: Martyn Colbeck #keepfightingforelephants #bekindtoelephants https://www.instagram.com/p/ByLny7LA-9B/?igshid=kxh343lcj7mb

#Repost @deityanimalrescue with @get_repost ・・・ Tomorrow 🐘🌱🐅🌴🦏🌿🐒. The #LeuserEcosystem is an area of forest on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. It is among one of the most secluded and unknown forests in Asia. It is also the last place on Earth where Sumatran elephants, orangutans, tigers, and rhinos live and roam next to each other. This area is federally classified as “lacking essential information” regarding populations of those four endangered species and we aim to provide that data for the lawmakers to make the right decisions. #Palmoil plantations are increasing the number of conflicts with Sumatran elephants and without any management they could easily become extinct in 3-6 years. Elephants, like the one in this video, and other endangered species play an intricate and key role in the Leuser Ecosystem but until we understand how they live and effect other species we cannot protect them. Please join me and @istandwithmypack on Thursday, July 19th from 7-10pm for our RISE AGAINST EXTINCTION to help support our lifesaving work to save the critically endangered habitants of Sumatra’s Leuser Ecosystem and other conservations efforts.
