At the turn of the century, there were an estimated 200,000 Asian elephants. Today there are probably no more than 35,000 to 40,000 left in the wild elephant numbers have dropped by 62% over the last decade, and they could be mostly extinct by the end of the next decade. An estimated 100 African elephants are killed each day by poachers seeking ivory, meat and body parts, leaving only 400,000 remaining. Elephants are such majestic creatures on earth, it breaks my heart and I always end up feeling helpless, when we human are causing so much destruction to the planet earth, to the animals. Do you ever think about the life of other organism and how the human have become such machine who can't feel or see anything wrong with the way human have been treating the world ! #wildlife #manasnationalpark #jitudasblog #elephant #elephantconservation #asianelephant #assamelephant
