They are adaptations to aid the animal in it's everyday life. African elephant ears are no more efficiant for hearing than Indian elephant's ears but they are much larger in external area. This is so that large blood vessels can circulate great quantities of blood through the ear flaps quickly to aid in cooling the blood and therefore the body. Aquatic animals, water-dogs, beaver etc have different ears best adapted for their environment. Other animals have ears that rotate to give them 360 degree hearing.
Animals have different ear sizes based on their evolutionary adaptations to their environments. Large ears can help animals regulate body temperature by increasing heat loss or improve hearing abilities. Small ears may be advantageous for reducing heat loss in cold environments or for reducing drag while moving quickly.
They are big but not as large as portrayed in movies and media.
The shape of an animal's ears can help determine how well it can hear. Large ears tend to collect and funnel more sound waves to the ear canal, improving hearing sensitivity. The distinctive shapes of some animals' ears can also help them detect the direction of a sound more accurately.
One animal that fits this description is the kangaroo. Kangaroos have a relatively small tail compared to their large body size.
Pigs have small ears because they have poor eyesight and rely heavily on their sense of smell to navigate their surroundings and find food. Small ears help them avoid damage while foraging in dense vegetation or confined spaces. Additionally, small ears are more efficient at dissipating body heat, which is important for regulating their body temperature.
There are no animals that have six legs, large ears and a short tail. However, insects have six legs.

Sometimes. Very small mammals will have small ears to help conserve their body heat. The exceptions to this are rabbits and hares. Also marine mammals (large and small) have lost their external ears for much the same reason. The exception to this is sea-lions who still have external ears. Large terrestial mammals have large ears as they have little need to conserve body temperature. The elephant has very large ears which they flap for the purpose of radiating away excess body heat.
Polar bears, like most animals that live in cold regions, have small ears so they don't dissipate heat through them rapidly.
They are big but not as large as portrayed in movies and media.
The reason for a Chihuahuas large ears is because Chihuahuas originate from Chihuahua, Mexico and Mexico is a very hot place. Animals adapt to their environment and ears release a lot of heat so, if a Chihuahua comes from Mexico which is HOT that means its ears are going to be large to release excess heat so they don't over heat.They have large ears to release the excess heat from their bodies. Plus in the wild large ears kept them alert to big birds that would carry them away.
Yes cheetahs have large molars, large ears, excellent vision, very small canine teeth and powerful legs.
Animals may have smaller ears because they live in cold environments and heat is lost through your ears

polar bears aren't small you imbecile
Look at the rabbit and ask yourself the same question -.-'
