the habitats of an elephant are grasslands,marshes forest,deserts, and mountains. It depends on what type of elephant it is.
Elephants are probably the largest living mammals on earth. They don't have any natural predators that can attack a full grown elephant. However, In Africa lions and packs of hyenas have been known to attack an injured or extremely old elephant or an elephant calf that has strayed away from its herd. In Asia, a large adult Tiger or a Lion can attack a young elephant calf. Humans are the biggest enemies to elephants in all its habitats. Armed with guns hunters and poachers are the biggest threat to elephant numbers.
an elephant is an elephant , an elephant never breaks its promises
The niche for African elephants is to defoliate areas by stripping trees of bark and branches with its powerful trunk.
Project Elephant was launched in 1992 by the Government of India Ministry of Environment and Forests to provide financial and technical support of wildlife management efforts by states for their free ranging populations of wild Asian Elephants. The project aims to ensure long term survival of viable conservation reliant populations of elephants in their natural habitats by protecting the elephants, their habitats and migration corridors. Other goals of Project Elephant are supporting research of the ecology and management of elephants, creating conservation awareness among local people, providing improved veterinary care for captive elephants . Project Elephant (PE), a centrally sponsored scheme, was launched in February 1992 to provide financial and technical support to major elephant bearing States in the country for protection of elephants, their habitats and corridors. It also seeks to address the issues of human-elephant conflict and welfare of domesticated elephants. The Project is being implemented in 13 States / UTs, namely, Andhra Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Kerala, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Orissa, Tamil Nadu, Uttranchal, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal The initial modest Plan Outlay of Rs 23 crores in the 8th Plan was enhanced to Rs 60 crores in the 10th Plan.

The vegetation or plant life of an elephants habitat, depends on where the elephant lives. Some of the habitats have bamboo plants, some of them have fruit trees, and others just have grass.
Elephants are pretty big and most creatures recognize that it is a bad idea to cross them or they get smashed to a pulp. However, In Africa lions and packs of hyenas have been known to attack an injured or extremely old elephant or an elephant calf that has strayed away from its herd. In Asia, a large adult Tiger or a Lion can attack a young elephant calf. Young African elephants are prey to lions, hyenas, and crocodiles.Humans, of course, can kill an elephant, but it is now illegal in most countries. Humans are the biggest enemies to elephants in all its habitats. Armed with guns hunters and poachers are the biggest threat to elephant numbers.Humans, we hunt them for their skin and ivory (tusks).Pretty much only man, in the form of Ivory poachers. Left to their own devices, a grown elephant is more than a match for any other animal in it's habitat.
