First, that is how God made them.

Also:
The natural colour of the skin is greyish black in both the African and the Asian elephant. To the observer of the elephant, the apparent colour of the skin is determined by the colour of the area's soil. This is due to the elephant's habit of throwing mud over its back.

Because that's what color the Maker made them.
