African elephants, Tanzania

Today, let us take you to the Tarangire National Park in Tanzania, where African elephants roam freely. These gentle giants are characterised by their large, flapping ears, long trunks and curved tusks. They live in small family groups led by a matriarch and communicate through low-frequency sound waves. Unfortunately, threats like habitat loss and poaching have left them on the brink of extinction. So, let's commit to the lives we can still save and join voices with Earth's cry for help, for in their survival, we find our own.
