Unfortunately, your photos did not come through. Depending on the type of elephant ear It may be sensitive to outdoor sunlight. Some of them require a fair amount of shade, or filtered light, through a window.

I would recommend acclimating it slowly, and if that does not help then it will need to remain an indoor plant.

Here are some articles that will help:
