Abstract

African elephants have behaviors and features that keep them safe from predators, from the herds they live in to their large size. But these elephants are endangered. Because of humans, their habitat is shrinking, and climate change is hurting their food supply and their health. Human hunters are also putting these creatures at risk. Readers will learn why African elephants are at risk, what it means to be endangered, and how people can help. Each title includes activities and trivia questions to help readers connect with the content.
