African Elephant worldwildlife.org ecomii.com animalfactguide.com Elephants habitats are grasslands and forest. They live in Congo Basin, Coastal East Africa. Elephants are herbivores and eat 300-400 pounds of grasses and woody vegetation. African elephants are usually killed for their ivory tusks.

Poaching is the main problem and the reason African Elephants have a vulnerable IUCN. African elephants live in herds and they have live birth. Mothers are pregnant for 22 months or 640 days. African Elephant both the make and female have tusks instead of just the make. The Conservation on International Trade in Endangered Species is a company that stops the trade of products from endangered animals.

To help with the African Elephants I could ask my family to donate money to the Wildlife Conservation center so they could do more to protect the elephants. We could protest against wearing ivory and use signs that are against poaching and how animals are dieing out from all of the killing.
