"Did the scientists realize that they are all E.L.E.P.H.A.N.T.S , or did they give this new specie of elephant a name. Obviously not big eared elephant as that's still an elephant. I think they should call them."
so by your logic, koala bear's are the same species are black bears and polar bears, just because that's what (some) people call them
the name is irrelevant - DNA tells us how close or far apart two living entities are in their make-up
