The chart illustrates the figure for elephants in 9 different countries from 1997 to 2004.
Overall, it can be seen that while the number of elephants in Cambodia increased, the opposite was true for 8 other countries. It is also notable that the figure for elephants in India remained the highest over the period shown.
In 1997, the number of elephants in India was the highest (10000), which was significantly higher than the figures for Malaysia and Sri Lanka (3000). Myanmar was the country that had the second largest number, with 5000. This was followed by Thailand, at 4000. From 1997 to 2004, the figure for elephants in India slightly decreased to 7800, but it still remained at the top. Similarly, there were slight decreases to 3900 and 4800 respectively in the quantities of elephants in Sri Lanka and Myanmar. Considerable decreases to around 1000 were seen in the figures for elephants in Thailand and Malaysia.
In 1997, all the 4 countries had the same figure of roughly 1200. After 7 years, the number of elephants in Cambodia saw a moderate rise to 1800. In contrast, the year 2004 witnessed slight decreases to 1000 in the figures for elephants in Vietnam and Laos. The number of elephants in China decreased dramatically to 500.
