Abstract
This is the fifth printed African Elephant Status Report (AESR) produced by the African Elephant Specialist Group (AfESG) of the IUCN Species Survival Commission (SSC). Like its predecessors, the AESR 2016 is based on data from the African Elephant Database (AED), the most comprehensive database on the status of any species of mammal in the wild. This is the first comparison of continental populations between 2006 and 2015 across 37 range states of the African elephant. Importantly, this report not only provides information on changes in elephant numbers but also, because it is spatial, shows where these changes have taken place.
