Elephants are large placental mammals that constitute the family Elephantidae, they are the only extant family of the order Proboscidea, elephants were a far more diverse family, but now, there are only eight extant species under two genera and the only two elephant genera alive today are Loxodonta (African Elephants) with two extant species being the African Bush Elephant (Loxodonta africana) and the African Forest Elephant (Loxodonta cyclotis) and Elephas (Asiatic Elephants) with six extant species being the Indian Elephant (Elephas indicus), the Sri Lanka Elephant (Elephas maximus), the Bangladeshi Elephant (Elephas bangladeshiensis), the Indochinese Elephant (Elephas vietnamensis), the Sumatran Elephant (Elephas sumatrensis), and the Bornean Elephant (Elephas borneensis) There were many extinct elephant species that many were not just extinct species of african elephant or asiatic elephant, there were also extinct elephant species in different genera as well Especially extinct elephants that are in the only living elephant subfamily, which is the subfamily Elephantinae The four-tusked elephants (genus Primelephas) are an extinct elephant genus with two known species: the Maglio's Four-Tusked Elephant (Primelephas gomphotherioides) and the Coppens's Four-Tusked Elephant (Primelephas korotorensis) The african elephants (genus Loxodonta) were not only constituted by two living species, but six other extinct species were also known, which include the African Scrub Elephant (Loxodonta cookei), the African River Elephant (Loxodonta expotata), the African Desert Elephant (Loxodonta atlantica), the African Grass Elephant (Loxodonta adaurora), the African Marsh Elephant (Loxodonta kararae), and the African Mountain Elephant (Loxodonta pharaohensis) The straight-tusked elephants (genus Palaeoloxodon) are an extinct elephant genus with sixteen recognized species, which include the Dietrich's Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon recki), the Maglio's Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon ekorensis), the Pomel's Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon iolensis), the Garutt's Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon mammontoides), the Occidental Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon antiquus), the Bate's Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon cypriotes), the Xylophagou Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon xylophagou), the Tilos Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon tiliensis), the Naxos Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon lomolinoi), the Crete Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon creutzburgi), the Adams' Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon mnaidriensis), the Busk's Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon falconeri), the Turkmenian Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon turkmenicus), the Indian Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon namadicus), the Chinese Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon huaihoensis), and the Japanese Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon naumanni) The asiatic elephants (genus Elephas) were not only constituted by six living species, but twelve other extinct species were also known, which include the Jordan Elephant (Elephas jordanensis), the Arabian Elephant (Elephas arabicus), the Turkish Elephant (Elephas turcicus), the Caucasian Elephant (Elephas caucasicus), the Syrian Elephant (Elephas asurus), the Chinese Elephant (Elephas rubridens), the Falconer's Elephant (Elephas hysudricus), the Flat-Headed Elephant (Elephas platycephalus), the Javan Elephant (Elephas sondaicus), the Blora Elephant (Elephas hysudrindicus), the Beyer's Elephant (Elephas beyeri), and the Sulawesi Dwarf Elephant (Elephas celebensis) The mammoths (genus Mammuthus) are an extinct elephant genus with twelve recognized species, which include the Barbary Mammoth (Mammuthus africanavus), the Cape Mammoth (Mammuthus subplanifrons), the Sardinian Mammoth (Mammuthus lamarmorai), the Cretan Dwarf Mammoth (Mammuthus creticus), the Southern Mammoth (Mammuthus meridionalis), the Romanian Mammoth (Mammuthus rumanus), the Woolly Mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius), the Steppe Mammoth (Mammuthus trogontherii), the Jefferson's Mammoth (Mammuthus jeffersonii), the Columbian Mammoth (Mammuthus columbi), the Imperial Mammoth (Mammuthus imperator), and the Channel Island Mammoth (Mammuthus exilis)
Thank you for the recommendation. Now I'm making videos about general description of most known animals. Later, I'll add more interesting and useful information about them. I have a plan. 😊
What’s the point of making a video about the animal that gets little views when only the second video does good . Also a better tile would probably be (Insane facts about Leopard Geckos!)
And they are really pretty in squirrel dumplings or deep fried with fried potatoes and milk gravy and biscuits yum yum. And they are really fun to hunt.
