Loxodonta cyclotis
African Forest Elephant
Loxodonta cyclotis, the African
forest elephant, is an essential occupant of the forests of Congo,
dispersing the seeds to keep the forest populated by multiple
species of trees. But the forest elephant's
habitat is being threatened by the
interactions of poachers, bringing them to an endangered state.
The forest elephant
adapts to its environment in response to various stimuli that
effects its life style like water and food availability. These
elephants must complete with one another to try to adapt best to
become most favorable to the opposite sex for
reproduction.
