The Gourma region of central Mali, Western Africa is home to one of the last herds of desert elephants. Like other elephants in Africa, they’re disappearing at an alarming rate. But Mali’s desert elephants could go extinct much sooner than others.
Poachers killed more than 80 desert elephants in 2015, with 16 more killed just since January. These special elephants could be gone in three years unless the Malian government does more to protect them from poachers.
Tell Mali’s Environment Minister, Sir Ousmane Koné, to take action to save the last 300 elephants of Mali now.

Whatever. It's just a big useless cow to be honest.

But Dumbo was cute... Or something.

You go and offer good pay and anyone from /k/ would volunteer. Poacher hunting with the wardens sounds awesome and even antigun faggots would 100% it when you explain it's protecting endangered animals. Sounds like fun but I don't know how long I could take the heat difference.
>>68247691
Why, tho?
>>68247691
I wonder if Elephant is good eat
>>68248126
not at all
>>68247859
elephant lives matter.
they are live in an ecosystem taht relies in their activity to exist.
>>68248126
This. Farm their meat/tusks and they will not be extinct. Liberals can't 1 and 1.
Honestly this is the liberals fault.
If they hadn't pushed so hard to end colonization that continent wouldn't be totally fucked. The wild life is pretty much fucked if then native Africans aren't given guidance from the west.
>>68248183
You speak from experience?
Who care? Who does this impact? Nobody.
Britain should re-invade all of Africa, for their own good. Replace all the anarchy with boiled meat and poorly made cars. Don't wait for the US to do it, we're just gonna steal the oil and skip town.
>>68247691
Why didn't they learn to use them like all those orientals?

The only reason I could think of is food scarcity making it not worth feeding them. That might be an argument in some places.
>>68247859
I'd rather preserve the Mali elephant than the Mali nog sprinting towards Europe.
>>68248230
Are they vital though? I'm not sure they are.
>>68247691
This wouldn't be a problem if white people were in charge.
>>68247691
If a white government was still in power this wouldn't be happening.
Why don't we just shoot poachers at this point? That's pretty much the only way you are going to stop them. I'm sure they are quacking in their boots when they are told to be nice to the things they hunt.
>>68247691
It's always niggers and chinks doing the poaching.

>>68248997
I think they do.
>>68249079
That was a good read.
>>68248126
I bet they taste fucking delicious, like giant tender steaks
>>68248997
Can't watch everywhere, unless every elephant heard had a literal small militia living with them 24/7. For lack of people watching all the time, you can't deal with poachers unless you can body-armor the elephants and teach them to use machine guns.

I would go as far as to contaminate ivory/tusks with radioactive waste, to then bring it into the black market. The dose should not be too high so that death waits till it reaches the final customers.
This would benefit all of humanity since a lot of fucking stupid people will die.

There are already places that inject Rino horns with purple poison, since everything poached ends up being ground up for phony Chinese medicines. I don't think tusks are quite as easy to inject things into.
There are some groups of elephants in the world that are gradually evolving to become tusk-less from birth, since poaching generally spared the members of the species that have the genetic disorder that causes them to have no tusk.
>>68252429
Would be injecting nececarry? Radioactive dust sprinkled over it should do the trick, shouldn't it? After all the stuuf gets far more dangerous if you inhale it
>>68253302
The rhino poison is not poisonous to rhinos. Any radiation strong enough to be an deterrent to humans, would still be unhealthy for the elephants.
>>68253566
Sure but there is a lot of these which were confiscated. Instead of destroying them I would then preperate them and then let the black market do the rest
>>68253903
Intentionally killing humans is kinda evil, even when those humans are complete assholes. If someone is really going to intervene by doing tusk stuff, get a dentist to just start yanking them at a young age. They are only useful to elephants fighting other elephants.
>>68247691
seriously how will I get ivory products if another elephant species goes extinct?
>>68247691
You do something about polar bears first and I'll care.
>>68249587
>you will never be recruited by Elephant Team Six; getting paid to live with elephants and shoot the niggers who try to harm them
>>68254255
Maybe it iskinda evil. And a government coulnd't do such a thing because that stuff gets shiped to china etc. , but if I were rich and in the last part of my life I would maybe even do such a thing
