NPR just reported this sad news about elephant poaching in Botswana. I just returned from a week participating in a game count in Namibia, just over the river border from where this tragedy occurred. I will post more about my experience shortly, but want to share this information while it’s fresh.
That is so tragic! Killing those majestic creatures for the ivory. Awful.
Agreed! And like the tragic drug war, it’s particularly shameful that the battles are being fought at the source – on the supply side. More must be done to eliminate the demand.
