elephants!!

  Africa has experienced a huge decline in the number of elephants in the last 3-4 decades. In 1979 and 1989 half of Africa's elephants were killed for ivory. humans are limiting the elephants range of movement and food sources.they have no choice but to eat some of the farmer's crops in order to survive. most hunters in the wild hunt down elephants mostly for their tusks to create objects and leave the rest of the body where it was found.

An elephants’ tusks are a blessing and curse. Blessing because they give a elephants a true majesty that rise them above other animals as well and being of use for various tasks. A curse because man’s avarice for ivory has led to the senseless slaughter of hundred of thousands of the magnificent animals.
One of the key differences between African and Asian elephants is the tusks. All African elephants, male and female have tusk whereas only some Asian males have tusks. About 50% of Asian females have short tusks known as tushes. Unlike proper tusks tushes have no pulp inside.
