Is the elephant habitat in any danger?
Yes, elephant habitat is declining rapidly. The fastest deforestation rate in the world is in the rainforests of Asia, where forests are cleared to make way for massive palm oil plantations. That is one of the three habitats of elephants. The habitat of elephants on the African plains continues to be fragmented by roads, while livestock grazing and the people in charge of those livestock keep trying to force elephants into smaller areas. The third habitat of elephants is the African rainforest, but that is threatened by deforestation, too.

How many wild elephants are left in the world?
Once numbering in the millions, the African elephant population has dwindled to between 470,000 and 690,000 individuals according to a March 2007 estimate. The world population of Asian elephants -- also called Indian Elephants -- is estimated to be around 60,000. There are an estimated 500,000 African and 40,000 Indian elephants alive, including about 2000 total in zoo populations. A reduction in the illegal ivory trade would improve their chances of survival, as many are illegally killed by poachers each year. Habitat loss is another major threat in India and other Asian elephant countries. African- about 600,000 Asian- about 80,000
