Darwin calculated that, if a single breeding pair of elephants reproduced and all their offspring survived and reproduced, in 750 years there would be a standing population of 19 million elephants. In Africa and Asia, where elephants live in the wild, the total number of elephants is currently less than one million. Explain this in terms of natural selection

Respuesta :

Elephants were over exploited almost to extinction in the wild so that the number of elephants is now much smaller than what it could have been.
