Correct answer: African forest elephant

The African forest elephant is smaller than its savannah-dwelling cousin and has straighter, downward-pointing tusks. This adaptation prevents them from getting tangled in the thick undergrowth of the Congo Basin. Sadly, because their tusks are more compact and harder than those of bush elephants, they are highly targeted by ivory poachers. Photo: Thomas Breuer, Wikimedia Commons, CC BY 2.5.
