過去森林象及草原象都被例為非洲象並屬易危物種,兩種非洲象所棲息的地區及生境有別,基本上沒有重疊的棲息範圍。而最新的研究顯示,森林象的數量在過往31年下降了86%,現屬極危物種;草原象的數量在過往50年下降了60%,則屬瀕危物種。
In the past, African forest elephant (Loxodonta cyclotis) and African savanna elephant (Loxodonta africana) were both listed as the same species and was a Vulnerable species. recently research shows the habitats and distributions are different for both species, and they rarely overlap. the population of African forest elephant has declined 86% in the past 31 years and is now listed as Critically Endangered; the number of African savanna elephant has dropped 60% in the last 50 years, and it is now listed as Endangered.

Dear President Mnangagwa and the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority,
As a supporter of Humane Society International, I am reaching out today to ask that you deny the export of the 35 baby elephants that, after many months in holding pens, are still awaiting transfer to foreign zoos. Following the meeting of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) in Geneva in August this year, the wild capture and export of African elephants from Zimbabwe and Botswana to foreign captive environments, such as zoos and circuses, is forbidden. The CITES ruling takes effect in just a few weeks, and so in the meantime, we implore you to abide by the spirit of the CITES votes by refusing the export of these 35 wild elephants to overseas captive facilities. We urge you instead to authorise their release to a rewilding sanctuary where they have the hope of living a life as close to the wild as possible.
Many African countries, such as the 32 members of the African Elephant Coalition, as well as elephant experts and non-governmental organizations such as Humane Society International and the Humane Society of the United States, have opposed the previous commercial sales of Zimbabwe’s elephants to zoos in China out of conservation and animal welfare concerns. In January 2018, Humane Society International Africa and 33 partners submitted a letter to you pleading to halt the horrific abuse and practice of capturing elephants from the wild for captivity. And now that call has been endorsed by nations across the globe who agreed on a near ban at the recent CITES meeting.
African elephants are extremely social, cognitive and a long-lived species with life-long bonds. The capture of these young elephants has already shattered those vital family bonds, but by doing the right thing now, we can still give them a life of freedom and companionship. HSI stands ready to assist in the relocation of the elephants to a rewilding sanctuary.
I urge you to help these 35 baby elephants. A compassionate decision now by Zimbabwe would be welcomed the world over.
Kind regards,
First Name, Last Name

Elephants are being killed for their ivory tusks at an alarming rate - one every 15 minutes! We can help by getting the African Elephant added to the "Endangered" list under the U.S. Endangered Species Act (ESA). You can add your voice by signing International Fund for Animal Welfare - IFAW 's online petition: http://g.ifaw.org/elephants #EndangeredSpeciesDay
