Asian elephant

Asian elephant, small-eared elephant, watch and admire.

Eléphant du roi d’Annam - Pélissier
Pélissier

The Asian elephant lives in the forests ; it therefore lives in the shade. The African elephant, with large ears, lives in the savannah, in the sun, and its ears serve as a fan. Amusing !

These are two different species, cousins but not closely related.

May heaven allow Asia to still preserve some of these pachyderms.
