Elephant's head smashed with an iron ace

Hunting 150 elephants in a single day for ivory, 900,000 elephants have died

Elephants are tragically killed simply because they have tusks.

To get the tusks intact, elephants are beaten over the head with an iron axe and have their faces cut off.

Not only do humans kill elephants for their tusks, but they also capture young elephants and sell them to circuses or viewing areas.

Even ivory hunters do not spare pregnant elephants.

Poaching gangs can hunt 150 elephants in a single day.

For ivory, black-heated hunters brutally kill elephants

Elephants have complex emotions and fear, and they worry about their young.

The black-heated ivory hunters first beat the elephants down. Different elephants, will use different equipment. If to take the ivory, they will directly knock down the elephant. If to capture young elephants, they will try to stun the elephant.

The fallen elephant is still conscious, but the black-heated hunters will immediately come around with iron axes and chisels and cut the elephant's face off.

If you want to get a complete tusk, you have to cut it from the root, which grows in the elephant's "head".

The elephant is tragically cut off the face, when the elephant will not immediately die, many elephants will begin to twitch, and the scene is very sad.

The black-heated ivory hunters do not care about the elephant's feelings, they immediately replaced the saw and hammer, the elephant's head will be broken, and cut off to remove the tusks.

Some skilled poaching gangs can catch 150-200 elephants a day. Others, because they carry advanced equipment such as drones, can go after nearly 300 elephants in a day.

Human technology has fueled brutal ivory poaching.

Some ivory hunters have more traditional methods, but some have started using drones

At least 900,000 elephants have died in the last 20 years after baby elephants were brutally captured

After hunting the tusked elephants, hunters do not spare the tuskless baby elephants.

Baby elephants are cruelly caught and sold to circuses and other places.

Some baby elephants are also sold as hard labor and become hard labor elephants.

Elephants' happy families can be brutally destroyed by humans

Over the past 20 years, more than 900,000 elephants have been killed by humans.

Today, elephant populations are plummeting, and although elephant hunting is banned in many places, elephants are still being hunted and killed cruelly.

For ivory, hunters in Africa go to great lengths to hunt during reproduction. Some pregnant elephants have been killed.

Ivory hunters brutally take ivory tusks

In the wild, female elephants sometimes even make pleading cries to humans to protect their young.

Even some elephants will pity humans begging for mercy, but humans will not let them go, elephants are cruelly killed to take tusks, and baby elephants are tragically captured.

Elephants are harmless to humans, but unfortunately, humans always take the initiative to hurt them.

Elephants have their faces cut off

Everyone has the responsibility to protect elephants, which are kind and lovely animals.

We should refuse to use ivory products, and we should not eat elephants.

Some elephant hunting gangs will also use the elephant's meat as food. Even some places will take eating elephants as a rare and decent thing to do.

Elephants are never to be eaten.

For elephant circus performances, you should also watch as little as possible or not watch. Elephants are self-respecting animals, training elephants, trainers will constantly scold elephants behind t elephants, many small elephants can not stand such pain, and will sadly die.

When you see ivory products, you should resolutely not use them, humans can live well without ivory products

Reduce the number of elephant circus performances

Do not eat food made from elephant meat

Cherish and care for elephants, they have deep feelings and wisdom, and are good friends of human beings.

I hope we all cherish and care for elephants so that they can live happily, and don't kill the lovely elephants for ivory.
