so they can hear better The elephants ears are equivalent to the radiators in our cars. As the elephant flaps its ears, the blood that is flowing through the vessels in the elephants ears gets cooled. The bigger the ear better the cooling mechanism.
Unlike Asian Elephants they have tusks and are much bigger.
Elephants flapping their ears to cool off would represent an adaptive behavior.
1-An elephant is the largest land animal. 2-African elephants have large ears. 3-Indian elephants have small ears. 4-Female elephants share turns watching over all the baby elephants. 5-Elephants have great memories.
Elephant ears help elephants regulate their body temperature by dissipating heat. Their large, thin ears contain a network of blood vessels that release excess body heat when flapped. This adaptation is especially important in hot climates where elephants live.
Their ears cool them because blood circulates through the ears and they flap their ears to create a breeze and the air cools the blood in their ears, thus cooling their bodies as the cooled blood from the ears circulates.
yes elephants have large ears to cool down.
ELephants have great hearing senses. They use it actually with their very large ears and their trunks. The use their large ears for listening. And they use their trunks for warning other elephants of predators or for playing.!~!!~
yeah
No - but large elephant ears are used to control the elephants body temperature by letting off excess heat
Elephants, Texas jackrabbits, some donkeys.
it keeps them cool somehow .
their trunk, tusks, flat feet, large ears
Unlike Asian Elephants they have tusks and are much bigger.

Not joking - elephants have large, thin ears to cool their blood, thereby cooling their massive bodies. Otherwise, elephants would get too hot, and die.

Yes they do their large ears channel sound like a blood hound's ears trap sent.
