In the heart of South Africa, the Timbavati Nature Reserve, bordering
Kruger National Park, is home to a myriad of creatures namely the
Big Five of the safari world: the elephant, rhino, lion, Cape buffalo,
and leopard. The elephant specifically was a sight I will never forget.
The matriarchal herds were like nothing I had ever seen before with
strong personalities throughout.
TAKING ACTION
With elephant populations currently
declining due to illegal poaching and the
ivory trade, it is a pressing matter that
needs to be addressed. One does not have
to travel to South Africa to realize that these
creatures need our help whether it be via
organizations like the World Wildlife Fund
(WWF), education, or advocacy. These
amazing mammals are worth the fight!
