Why do Elephants Have Large Ears?

Posted on November 27, 2006 by | 1 Comment

It’s been almost three months since Arunn, in the comments to this post, promised to write a post about the thermoregulatory function of big, flappy elephant ears. Finally, he’s gotten to it, and now you can go and read his post. A perfect entry for the next edition of Panta Rei, which needs your entries ASAP.

    Coturnix: this is one thing that I always like about some of the “non-Indian” people I know…they definitely ARE sincere in what they do…
    Good to see you do remember what I wrote in the past and do follow up. Thanks for that excellent post of yours then, which set me to write this one… 😉
