Today's Mnemonic

ELEPHANTS

Here's a mnemonic means of recalling the differences between the African and the Indian elephant:

India's big, and its elephant there features
But Africa's bigger, with much bigger creatures.

Or put another way:

India's big, but Africa's bigger,
The same as their elephants - easy to figure!.

There is also another way to tell the difference. Generally speaking, the African elephant's large ears tend to resemble its continent. while the Asian elephant's ears resemble the outline of India!



"India! What a capital idea!"
