African elephants
The two main breeds of elephants are the African elephant (Loxodonta africana) and the Asian elephant (Elephas maximus). African elephants are larger and have bigger ears, while Asian elephants have smaller ears and a more rounded back.
African elephants have larger ears because they live in a hotter climate and use their ears to cool them off.

Yes. Especially their ears. :-)
African elephants have bigger ears than Indian elephants. Coincidentally, African elephants' ears resemble the continent of Africa, and Indian elephants' ears resemble the country of India.
Zoos typically have African elephants and Asian elephants. African elephants are the larger of the two species and have larger ears, while Asian elephants have smaller, rounded ears. Both species can be found in zoos around the world.
The easiest way to tell the difference between an African and an Asian elephant is by looking at the size of their ears. African elephants have larger ears that are shaped like the African continent, while Asian elephants have smaller ears that are rounded. Additionally, African elephants have a concave back, while Asian elephants have a convex or straight back.
