Herd you loud and clear. World Elephant Day

Get ready to celebrate elephants, the largest living land animals. There are three elephant species alive today: African bush, African forest and Asian. World Elephant Day, observed on August 12, is dedicated to raising awareness about the urgent challenges that these gentle giants face, like ivory trade and habitat loss. This habitat loss brings them into closer contact with humans, which can lead to serious problems for both elephants and humans.

Today's image features a herd of African elephants roaming the vast expanses of Amboseli National Park, Kenya. Elephants live in groups that are made up of several families, which are led by an older female elephant called a matriarch. Males leave to live alone or in bachelor herds, joining females during mating. Sadly, all three species of elephants are endangered. So, let's stand up for elephants today—together, we can protect their future.
