Adopt an Elephant
Elephants are the largest land mammals in the world, living in social structures organised around females and their calves.
Due to the international demand for ivory in the 1970s and 1980s,the illegal trade spiralled out of control causing a catastrophicdecline in African elephant numbers. Poaching caused the population tofall from an estimated 1.3 million in 1970 to just 600,000 in 1989.Today, even though it is now illegal to kill elephants, people continueto slaughter these magnificent beasts.
