Elephants that live in the natural habitat in the wild have a much lesser chance of reaching that age becasue of poachers and trappers that sell the mammals tusks for money. There is also an age range for specific species of elephants, the Asian elephant has a lifespan of roughly forty years of age mainly becasue these are the elephants that are working out in the forests. The Asian elephant species lives about two years longer that that of the African elephant.

M$The other species of elephant on the continent is the forest elephant which is smaller than the bush elephant and has a darker colour to its skin. This sub species has evolved more oval shaped ears and has tusks that point downwards and are straighter. There are also variations in the size and shape of the two species skeletal structure and skulls.
