===Elephant=== [[File:Elephant Kruger 2003.jpg|right|thumb|[[African bush elephant]] (''Loxodonta africana'')]] The [[African bush elephant]] (''Loxodonta africana'') and the [[African forest elephant]] (''Loxodonta cyclotis'') are the largest extant land-based animals. Elephants are [[herbivore]]s with thick, almost hairless skin; a long, flexible, prehensile trunk; upper [[incisor]]s forming long, curved, [[ivory]] tusks; and large, fan-shaped ears. Elephants are difficult to hunt because, despite their large size, they are able to hide in thick bush and are more likely to charge than the other Big Five species. They become aggressive when their young are threatened.<ref>{{cite book|title=Fodor's African Safari, 1st Edition: From Budget to Big Spending Where and How to Find the Best Big Game Adventure in Southern and Eastern Africa|year=2004|publisher=Fodor's|isbn=978-1-4000-1234-3|page=[https://archive.org/details/fodorsafricansaf0000unse/page/142 142]|url=https://archive.org/details/fodorsafricansaf0000unse/page/142}}</ref>
