Summary[edit]
.jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | The Borneo Pygmy Elephants eventually broke up and fanned out all over their enclosure. Yes, there are noticeably smaller than their Asian elephant cousins, of the type I've seen in India, Thailand and Sri Lanka. The one in the immediate foreground is rather small, and is a female. It has become commonplace to refer to Borneo elephants as a ‘pygmy’ subspecies. I was surprised to read on Wikipedia however that adult elephants of Sabah of both sexes are similar in height to their counterparts in Peninsular Malaysia. Five measurements of the skull of a fully adult female elephant from Gomantong Forest Reserve were slightly smaller (72 – 90%) than comparable dimensions averaged for two Sumatran skulls.
