Elephants have adaptations mainly for regulating temperature and for faster evaporation of water so that it does not get too sticky and uncomfortable.Evaporation of water from the body leaves a cooling effect.They do so by active sweating, panting and licking.They have very large ears which helps to keep their bodies cool by the blowing of air across the ears.Flapping of ears cools the blood which in turn cools the body.
