The most telling difference is the size of their ears and the presence of tusks. African elephants have much larger, more rounder ears than Asian elephants do, and tend to be able to have tusks more often. Asian elephants, on the other hand, have much smaller and more square or triangle-shaped ears (which ever shape you prefer) than African elephants do. A tusked Asian elephant (called Tuskas) is more rare than an Asian elephant with no tusks.
