Pygmy Elephant

These are undoubtedly the cutest elephants you’ll ever see, and they’re only in Borneo. ‘It is believed they evolved from a sultan releasing captive elephants into the jungle in the 18th century, but regardless, they are considered a subspecies that is evolutionarily different from other Asian elephants,’ says Thomas.

‘They are also endangered and have a limited range of habitat in Borneo of around 186 square miles or so.’
