Hashtags associated with elephant selfie posts on Instagram.

Data shown are the post volume (the number of posts in which the hashtag was used), whether Instagram’s pop-up alert was triggered (Y = yes, N = no), and whether any of the posts had been posted (i.e. the hashtag had been used) since the warning was introduced in 2017. Not all posts conformed to our definition of an elephant selfie; hashtags were included if at least one post using it was relevant (see footnote). Only hashtags with a post volume > 500 are shown here, the full set of identified relevant hashtags is provided in S1 Appendix. Neither the list of hashtags here, or the full list of hashtags given in S1 Appendix, is intended to be exhaustive. Bold text indicates hashtags used for further analysis.
