Elephants are known to have a good memory, intelligence, and deep emotional bonds among them. Practically they are one of the fascinating creatures of nature. So the direct factor for this decline of the elephant population is the demand for ivory in both local and international market. This has become a serious threat to the species.
Even when illegal ivory trading is taking place throughout the world, we do not have enough legal measures to protect humble giants. With the growth of the human population, attacks on elephants keep rising. As a survival tactic, people around elephants retaliate by killing them. This has led to exceed the elephant’s annual reproduction rate. This problem directly affects some savannah elephant population.
In many areas, elephant population have already gone extinct or are highly endangered. Illegal hunting of elephants for human purposes is responsible for this. As adult elephant males and females get killed due to conflicts, the birth rate of elephants is directly influenced towards the negative side.
Many elephants may survive as orphans without direct guidance from parents or a leader. These factors are directly reducing the elephant population rate while increasing the number of orphan baby calves.
As humans, it’s our prime duty to step forward for these unspeakable concerns of elephants. We should always avoid products made with ivory that will not let those poachers get any revenue. One thing we can easily do for them is not buying ivory and ornaments made by them. We should force authorities to enforce more laws to protect our elephants more and to punish these poachers more.
