Abstract

Data on measurements of shoulder height and front foot diameter were gathered from 250 elephants captured since the beginning of elephant capture operation in 1974. An analysis was made to determine the relationship between foot diameter and shoulder height in male and female and the differences in both measurements between male and female elephants. It was found that male elephant has greater measurements or shoulder height and foot diameter then the female. In regression analysis the regression line of male elephant (y = 4.772 + 5.795x) is steeper then the famale (y =4.479 + 5.694x).
