ENDANGERED SPECIES: AFRICAN ELEPHANT BLOG ENTRY
African Elephants are on
their way to becoming extinct and a lot more needs to be done to make sure this
does not happen. In January of 2012 11 African Elephants were killed by guns in just one day.
My goal for this blog is to create awareness about the thousands of African Elephants that are
killed each year for their ivory tusks that make this creature so beautiful. It is very selfish of these
horrible people to kill such an amazing animal for something as small as the tusks on
their heads, to make profit. African Elephant's are on their way to becoming
extinct and something needs to be done immediately. It is unbelievable that up
to 8,000 African Elephants are killed each year for the ivory tusks alone. The
ivory from an Elephant is very beautiful and should be left on the animal for
everyone to see for the rest of eternity and should not be used as a decorative
piece on someone’s table or made into jewelry and worn on people.
