Through advances in endocrine monitoring and ultrasonographic examination, we have understood some of the complex mechanisms controlling reproductive function in elephants. Several reproductive characteristics appear to be unique such as luteal steroidogenic function, follicular development patterns, pituitary gonadotrophin secretion, and long estrous cycle and gestation lengths. This review describes current knowledge of female elephant endocrinology and how it is being used for maximal reproductive efficiency and enhancement of proper management.
