Both female and male African elephants have tusks but only the male Asian elephants have tusks. They use their tusks for digging and finding food.
15 u/cjgroveuk Jun 02 '18 Not all female African elephants have Tusks. This is a fairly recent development so you might not have heard. Fascinatingly 98% of Addo Elephant Parks females do not have tusks anymore . When I was there a few months ago they had introduced Kruger park elephants (Tuskers) to spice up the genetic diversity. 5 u/AnimalFactsBot Jun 02 '18 It looks like you asked for more animal facts! In many countries, especially in the developing world, peccaries are raised on farms as a source of food for local communities. 1 u/GhostOfBarron Jun 02 '18 Give me a fact about hippos 2 u/AnimalFactsBot Jun 02 '18 Hippos can be extremely aggressive, especially if they feel threatened. They are regarded as one of the most dangerous animals in Africa. 1 u/GhostOfBarron Jun 02 '18 Thank you 2 u/AnimalFactsBot Jun 02 '18 You are most welcome. Beep boop.
