Zimbabwe's govt asking to relax wildlife trade laws due to drought is like selling your children because your car broke down. #wildlifeconservation

7 poisoned elephants dead in Sri Lanka due to #HumanElephantConflict. One of them a pregnant female. I was also informed that another elephant, (possibly part of the heard) has been coming to the site daily to grieve the dead. https://t.co/HPXmNS0QUl

Hear the screams of pain of this young innocent 🐘, tormented and abused by the human to become "our" entertainment.
Animals aren't clowns, wildlife is in danger. Please share and never go to a zoo, circus or ride them.
Your entertainment is their suffering.
