Answer:
The ears of the African elephant act as a thermal regulation system. By flapping the ears the elephant can shed excess heat. The ears contain a large number of blood vessels.
The ear flapping also acts as a flag to rivals or enemies that the elephant is upset or angry. This is similar to many animals that try to make themselves look bigger when attacked or about to attack.
