Do Ears Help Them Keep Cool?

Elephants do use their ears to help keep them cool, but not as a direct fanning motion as the myth suggests. Instead, the large surface area of the ears allows them to radiate excess body heat into the environment. This is especially effective when combined with other cooling mechanisms like flapping the ears and mud wallowing.
