Elephants are our future for many reasons. 

1. Elephants help the food chain stay balanced. They are eaten by lions ,and if they go extinct, then lions will have less food to eat
2. If lions go extinct then the animals that lions eat will grow in larger numbers eating more plants
3. We humans use lions to do one thing or the other, and well if lions go extinct then we cannot use them  
4. In the process of killing elephants humans get killed too sometimes, and we don't want this to happen 
5.  Elephants eat plants and if they go extinct, then plants will overgrow where they live
6.  If elephants are killed and go extinct, then what will some people eat or use in subsitute for their tusks?
7. Some other animals like hyenas kill elephants for food sometimes and if they have no food what will they eat and the other animals that they eat will overpower Africa and Aisa
