African elephants are in grave danger: They're being slaughtered by trophy hunters looking to mount their heads on walls.
It's disgusting and inhumane.
Savanna elephant populations have plunged by 30%, and yet the United States may soon allow hunters to import elephant body parts as trophies once again. We cannot allow that to happen.
We must ban the import of elephant trophies under the Endangered Species Act.
Banning elephant trophy imports would deter many trophy hunters and send a clear message that the United States does not support killing these iconic animals — whether it's for a head mount or a poached ivory tusk.
U.S. trophy hunters historically played an outsized role in the international trophy trade but recently, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service largely paused letting these hunters bring back their kills. After a hunting group sued, the agency is now deciding whether to allow hunters to bring elephant heads, tusks, feet and other trophies from Zimbabwe and Namibia back home again.
Elephants are not trophies. They're highly intelligent, social animals – and just last year savanna elephants were declared to be in danger of extinction.
Now is the time to strengthen protections to save this species and stop hunters from using these animals for thrill-kills to show off their body parts on walls and floors.
We are calling on the Biden administration to end those imports once and for all, by banning them under the Endangered Species Act.
Take action today: Tell the USFWS to ban trophy imports from these magnificent creatures as head mounts, feet, tusks or any other meaningless trophy.
