Humans have a huge impact on elephants survival. African elephants are hunted by pouchers for their ivory tusks which are sold on the black market and used in various ways. The impact of habitat destruction is just as important if not more important than pouching. It can reduce the amount of food sources, water sources, and breeding sites available to the elephants and reduce their survival rates.
Nations around the world have put a ban on hunting elephants for their tusks. Also, the sale of Ivory (elephant tusk) is a crime in most nations. Since ivory is the main reason why elephants were killed in thousands, the ban on ivory sale has actually helped reduce the number of poaching incidents in Africa and India. Still there is illegal sale of ivory in the black market and law enforcement authorities around the globe are trying to catch such criminals to help the elephants.
Humans cut down trees and also make forests smaller into pockets.This is why some elephants are extinct scince thbe last ice age 3 are left the African bush elephant, the African forest elephant and the Indian elephant
other animals such as your mum are affecting elephants and their habitats everywhere
almost.
Yes, elephant habitat is declining rapidly. The fastest deforestation rate in the world is in the rainforests of Asia, where forests are cleared to make way for massive palm oil plantations. That is one of the three habitats of elephants. The habitat of elephants on the African plains continues to be fragmented by roads, while livestock grazing and the people in charge of those livestock keep trying to force elephants into smaller areas. The third habitat of elephants is the African rainforest, but that is threatened by deforestation, too.
Food, water , habitat area and mates.
Any African animal you can think of or Asian
African Elephants share their habitat with animals like Lions, Cheetahs, Hyenahs, Leopards, Giraffe, Zebra, etc. The Asian Elephants share their habitat with animals like Tigers, Indian wild ox, wild dogs, deer, Rhinos etc.
The increasing human population need more space hence natural forests, the habitat of elephants, are being cleared. Elephants ,on the other hand, require large areas of forests to live in and move about. Thus elephant's habitat are being continuously effected.
Yes it is.
In Aisa!
almost.
The Savannah
Elephants live in warm and humid climates, usually forest and savanna.
Yes, despite poaching and habitat destruction, elephants can still be found in the wild.
Asian elephants are smaller because their jungle habitat makes being large a disadvantage.
Habitat Loss. The main threat facing Indian elephants, like all Asian elephants is loss of habitat, which then results in human-elephant conflic
yes they are but it is not their main habitat
The vegetation or plant life of an elephants habitat, depends on where the elephant lives. Some of the habitats have bamboo plants, some of them have fruit trees, and others just have grass.
