The numbers of wild Asian Elephants range from 30,000 to 53,000. The IUCN Red List population numbers fall within the range (41,410 to 52,345). This wide range seems to depend to a large degree on the system used to count them, or even if a system is used at all. It appears that some systems may be more reliable than others. While the estimated captive numbers are between 14,000 and 15,000. They are listed as "endangered" with the population decreasing by the IUCN Red List. For more information, please see sites listed.
