Forest Elephants are a smaller subspecies of the African elephant, primarily found in the dense rainforests of Central and West Africa. They have a more compact body, smaller ears, and straighter tusks compared to their savanna counterparts. These adaptations help them navigate their forest habitat more effectively. These elephants play a crucial role in their ecosystem by helping to maintain the health of the forest. They disperse seeds through their dung, which promotes plant growth and biodiversity. Unfortunately, Forest Elephants are threatened by habitat loss and poaching, making conservation efforts essential for their survival.
