Because it is very apparent that you have a great deal more knowledge about species than I. Until this conversation, all I knew about elephants was that there were two kinds, the African and the Asian, and that they are related to the long extinct mammoth. I had no idea that there were two kinds of African elephants or any os the other things you've since pointed out to me. -- mu'o mi'e .aionys. .i.a'o.e'e ko cmima le bende pe lo pilno be denpa bu .i doi.luk. mi patfu do zo'o (Come to the Dot Side!

"sa'orselde'i" describes African elephants, not Asi= an ones. Not that I've ever
looked in an elephant's mouth, but IIUR, the ridges on Africans are obl= ique,
while those on Asians aren't.

Are you a zoologist, by chance? Because it is very apparent that y= ou have a great deal more knowledge about species than I. Until this conver= sation, all I knew about elephants was that there were two kinds, the Afric= an and the Asian, and that they are related to the long extinct mammoth.
I had no idea that there were two kinds of African elephants or any os = the other things you've since pointed out to me.
