Wildlife spotlight
African savanna elephant

Size

African savanna elephants are the biggest land animals on Earth. Adult males (bulls) can be 13 feet tall and weigh more than 14,000 pounds!

Influence

Making pathways, pushing over trees to access branches and roots, dispersing seeds of fruit they've eaten, and digging for water with their tusks and trunks, elephants are important ecosystem engineers and help promote rich biodiversity.

 

African savanna elephants are found in 23 sub-Saharan countries and live in a variety of habitats, from open and wooded savannas to deserts and forests. Poaching is the primary threat to this endangered species.
