INDIAN ELEPHANT
Silybum marianum


They are distinguished from their African counterparts by their smaller size, smaller ears, more rounded back, and a fourth toenail on each of their hind feet. They have thick, dry skin with a small amount of stiff hair, and are grey to brown in colour. Their habitat spans across India and Sri Lanka and as far as Sumatra.
