Sixty three- and counting
Asian elephants do not live in western Bengal/Bangladesh. They may have before humans began to threaten elephants due to deforestation and poaching for ivory. Asian elephants as a whole, however, are endangered.
millions of species are going extinct each day due th deforestation
Around 500 people are estimated to be fatally attacked by elephants each year. These incidents often occur in regions of Africa and Asia where humans and elephants come into contact due to habitat loss and agricultural expansion.
Deforestation is one of the leading causes in death among Tigers. Over the past decade, it's been estimated that over 1,000 Tigers have died for this reason.
Some common enemies of elephants include poachers who hunt them for their tusks, habitat destruction due to human encroachment and deforestation, and conflicts with humans over resources such as water and crops. In some areas, elephants also face threats from predators like lions and crocodiles.
Yes, African elephants have been losing their habitat due to factors such as human encroachment, deforestation, and agricultural expansion. This loss of habitat puts elephants at risk of conflict with humans and limits their ability to find food and water. Efforts are being made to conserve and protect their habitats to ensure the survival of African elephants.

The Amazon Rain Forest loses about 23,000 square kilometers (8.97 square miles) each year due to deforestation.
The deforestation was increased. It was due to population hike.
Elephants can experience population declines due to habitat loss, primarily from deforestation and land conversion for agriculture. Poaching for ivory and other body parts significantly contributes to their decrease as well. Additionally, human-wildlife conflict can lead to culling or displacement of elephants, further impacting their numbers. Climate change also threatens their habitats and food sources, exacerbating the decline.
due to deforestation, pollution is increasing and holes in the ozone layer are increasing
Yes, elephants do have the ability to remain standing after they die due to a unique anatomical feature called the "stay apparatus." This is a system of tendons and ligaments that allows elephants to lock their legs in a standing position without actively using muscles. However, this ability is not universal among all elephants and can depend on various factors such as the terrain and the circumstances of their death.
