Why do African elephants have bigger ears than Asian ears?

It's the other way around. African elephants have bigger ears. The theory is that since elephants can't sweat, they use their ears - which are full of blood vessels close to the surface - to cool themselves down with. And as Africa is generally hotter than Asia, African elephants need bigger ears to keep from overheating. Also. African elephants generally live in the open, while Asian elephants spend more time in the woods. Bigger ears would get quite worn and torn if they kept brushing up against trees and branches all the time.

Do people follow the law that you can't kill African elephants?

Some people do follow that law. However, some people still illegally kill elephants to sell their ivory. Also, when elephants eat the crops of the African farmers, they are sometimes killed by the enraged people. First it is legal to hunt African elephants in at least 10 countries at this time. Second, more people are killed by elephants every year than elephants by people. Third, when a village loses it's entire crop in a couple of nights and the herd is culled by the gov't. Once dried, the meat from those elephants will feed the village for a few months while they await gov't aid. Unless they live in Zimbabwe.
