What is the difference between the Asian elephant and the African elephant?
some differences in African and Asian elephants is that: African elephants weigh up to 4000 - 7000 kg and have a height of about 3 - 4m, though Asian elephants only weigh about 3000 - 6000 kg and have a height of 2 - 3 and a half metres. African elephants skin is a lot darker and more wrinkled, where as Asian elephants have lighter and smoother skin. African elephants have a concave back, where Asian elephants have a straight or slightly humped back. African Elephants have a sloped head, with no bumps, bulges or denses. Where as Asian elephants have rounded heads with some bumbs and have a dint on the top of their head. African Elephants have larger ears with a size of 4m, and the ears cover its neck. Where as Asian elephants have smaller ears and it doesn't cover its neck. In African elephants, both male and female elephants have tusks, though male elephants tusks are larger. Though with Asian elephants, yes the males grow tusks as well, but the females don't. And if they do, they are barely visible anyways. Also on the end of a African elephants trunk, it has two fingers. Though Asian elephants only have one finger. ( These are true facts, I got them off my science teacher who specialises in differences found in similar mammals. )
Why Do Elephants heve big ears?

Is there any link between the size of animal ears and hearing?
In some cases there is. Some examples of this are certain species of bats which have very large ears, and super-sensitive hearing. Elephants also have very large ears, and exceptional hearing, though they are also able to pick up low frequency vibrations using their trunk and feet, which are packed with special receptors. On the other hand, owls, which literally just have ear-holes with feather disks to funnel sound into them, have some of the best hearing in the animal kingdom. Generally, if the shape of the ear looks something like a funnel, or if the shape of the ear or something around it looks as though it would direct sound into the ear, the animal will have good hearing.
