The Borneo Pygmy Elephant is a subspecies of the Asian elephant, known for its smaller size and distinct features. These elephants typically weigh between 1,500 to 2,500 kilograms and stand about 2 to 2.5 meters tall at the shoulder. They have larger ears and a longer tail compared to other elephants, which helps them adapt to their rainforest habitat. Found primarily in the forests of Borneo, these elephants play a crucial role in their ecosystem by dispersing seeds and maintaining the health of the forest. Their population is currently threatened due to habitat loss and poaching, making conservation efforts essential for their survival.
