🐘 Asian elephants are my favorite animal living today so I got a stuffed one on eBay that I am going to name Melissa and I have made a blanket for her. Such beautiful, intelligent and lovable animals! 🐘
The difference is African Elephants are bigger than Asian Elephants. African Elephants are from Africa due to the big ears & has tusks both males & females. Asian Elephants are from Asia & only the males has tusks instead of the females plus what I learned from Bronx Zoo's Wild Asia Monorail ride for 6 years is Asia's Asian Elephants are becoming the rarest. To help African Elephants in Africa & Asian Elephants in Asia in the successful distant future against poachers & traffickers is donate to Wildlife Conservation Society at 2300 Southern Blvd in Bronx, NY 10460.
DISGUSTING. The life spans of elephants in zoos typically are far shorter than their 70-year life expectancy in the wild. Since 2000, more than half of the 76 elephants who have died at facilities accredited by the Association of Zoos & Aquariums never even reached the age of 40. They are imprisoned. They deserve freedom. Its just heartbreaking.
Radical animal rights groups are killing animals and the future of endangered species. Lots of them such as PETA have put down thousands of stray cats and stray dogs under the name of giving them 'humane treatment'. What an evil excuse! The radical solutions proposed by them will deprive endangered species the breeding programs, and thus lead to the extinction of them. Those radical people have no gratitude for what so many kind people have done to take care of animals. Lots of people working in zoos, aquariums, and circuses have devoted so much for animals they love. The biggest lie of them is that natural places are peaceful and without violence and pain. It is ridiculous! The brutality in nature exceeds the worst circuses. There are so many killings in the wild every day, and no one can help the poor victims in the wild. People working in great institutions will separate animals to avoid violence and painful death for animals. In the wild, lots of animals will fight violently and lead to fatal injuries. That never happens in good institutions. They never mention the weaker ones and prey are ruthlessly killed every day. And nature is not free of human influence. The loss of habitat, pollution, poaching threatens the survival of animals every day. It is ludicrous to live in the fantasy world and ensure us animals are better off out of zoos, aquariums, and circuses. In reality, animals can avoid so many trouble by living in well-funded institutions. The most unreasonable proposal of radical animal rights activists is that animals should be sent back to nature. It is tantamount to murder by doing so. They never mention lots of animals were actually bred in artificial places, and they can never survive without necessary skills. Most animals sent back to nature will starve to death or become victims of predation or violent fight. How irresponsible and cruel it is to allow a chronic death for animals we love! Radical people never mention vets have treated animals and saved their lives. In nature, aging and sick animals will die as soon as they can no longer compete with others. But in an artificial environment, animals can get medical treatment. That is why the longest living animal record is always held by animals living in artificial places! More than half of animal Cubs can never reach adulthood in the wild, and animal rights people never mention that. Of course, they will not tell you animal babies have a very low mortality rate in well-funded organizations! Great institutions bred so many endangered species, and their contribution even reversed the dire future of certain species. Take the example of the giant panda, their number has increased because of the efforts made by zoos. Radical groups never mention the facts of those animals. Pandas usually have two cubs, but they will abandon the younger one because of their incompetence in breeding their offspring. The younger one will starve to death, and that is why pandas are so rare. But that is not the case in zoos! All the babies will survive even if their mother refused to take care of them. People working in zoos give them enough care to help them reaching adulthood. Radical people never want you to know how much those institutions have done to save endangered species. Another ridiculous claim made by radical people is that zoos, aquariums are evil because they make money because of the animals. That is so naive to say so. Without money, who will help and take care of animals? Are you expecting the donations or government fund are enough to help and save animals? Without the fund, no organization can run to sustain its existence. The money earned by those organizations is used to buy food, medical care, hiring vets and workers, and conducting research to deepen our understanding. The radical proposals made by ignorant people will never succeed for animals because it is not feasible to help animals without sustainable fund. Perhaps those radical people think they can claim victory when great institutions are closed, but what benefit do they bring to animals they claim they love. Those poor animals can never receive enough care as before, lots of them are out of sight, and out of mind of the public! They can never prove their hatred driven hysteria can save the endangered species or save the habitat of animals. Actually, most of them have no contribution in helping animals, but they are very keen to demonize people who help! They use the donations of others to make propaganda instead of caring for animals. How much money will be spent on taking care of so many animals when good institutions are closed? And how long can you sustain such a massive project? Don't believe the propaganda of radical animal rights activists, they use emotional manipulation and fake science to deceive good people. They give you an illusion without much detail on how to sustain the work of helping animals. All they know is to demonize good institutions that truly take care of animals, and enhance our understanding and love for animals. They will not hesitate to viciously attack people who have different ideas. Can you expect those people to save animals?
You failed to educate everyone on how much space an elephant needs for a good life. They walk for miles each day in the wild, but that is kind of hard to do in the prison you provide for them. You should name the habitat Houston Elephant Penitentiary.

@@seancrowley241 I don't know who you are pointing your statement toward but it makes no sense under my comment. I learn from expert information provided by safari guides in Africa who practically live with the wild animals and visit their habitat every day. PETA is mostly involved in NA with domesticated animals though they do get involved occasionally on some wild animals used in circus, zoos, etc.
@Asher You are WRONG. During the growing season in Africa the elephants DO NOT stay in one area even though there is plenty to eat all around them. In fact it VERY common to never see the same herd visit the same region twice in the same year. They may stay for a 2-3 days at the most and then they leave the entire region. Elephants that do not move much will have problems with their feet. Elephant sanctuary of Tennessee must trim their toe nails to prevent medical issues event though it is the largest space available for elephants in NA.
So cute..I love the elephants and they are so smart:) Thanks so much Houston:)
I don't go throwing this word around but man , are they ever CUTE !
I just look at the ears
Exactly, the obvious difference she missed mentioning.
They are gentle creatures.
Good morning sir please send me the name of the time of the park

The Asian elephant is the largest land animal in Asia
I prefer Asian Elephants over African because they are friendlier.

Did you ever take any pictures of Patty? She’s my favorite Bronx Zoo elephant.
@@emmarose4234 it's in my photo album collection at home plus my TH-cam channel.
They are over 4 subspecies of Asian Elephants there are rare Borneo Pygmy Elephant the rarest species of elephant
Those elephants make me think of the Elephants in the Jungle Book
And me
They forgot to mention the African elephants have bigger ears than Asian elephants.
This zoo has a terrible record with elephants; many of them born have died here because of disease transmission
