Elephant hunting season in Botswana starts in April and will go through September.  272 elephants have been slated for this hunting season.  The time is now to tell the U.S. government to protect elephants and other precious wildlife.  Please click on the link below to sign the petition to the U.S. Congress asking members to support the Cecil and Protect Acts.  Both of these bills will restrict the import of trophies of species listed under the Endangered Species Act which includes elephants. 
 
Please sign and share this petition:

Imagine 272 elephants gone in just five months who are already critically endangered.  Then compound this loss with poaching and wildlife trafficking of other elephants and wildlife.  We do not have time to waste and we cannot give up on this fight.   
 
In solidarity,
