The info in this section is still up-to-date : still 3 subspecies recognised : Indian, Sri Lankan + Sumatran, but not the Bornean as of 2020. The Bornean is traditionally included under the Indian, and I did not find any paper on taxonomic status of Bornean elephant later than 2020, i.e. the notes in resp. Red List.

This (Average elephant life expectancy is 60 years in the wild and 80 in captivity, although this has been exaggerated in the past.) particular sentence cites a study from 1982. I'm unsure that this could still be considered accurate data. 162.106.4.146 (talk) 18:31, 8 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Do you know of any more recent studies in reliable sources that would change this? We do prefer more recent published studies if they have been accepted by appropriate peers. However, older sources are perfectly fine if they are still generally accepted in the field of study. Donald Albury19:11, 8 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
