Support a cause: An Elephant is Killed Every 15 Minutes

action alert! An elephant is slaughtered every 15 minutes in Africa by commercial poachers. The international community — especially America — needs to stop buying illegal ivory. Support the Ban on Ivory To Save Elephants please share it helps!     Recently, the Obama administration and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) took a stand for animal rights by proposing a comprehensive ban on ivory products. But now, these critical new rules are coming under fire, threatening to unravel the progress we've made to protect vulnerable African elephants. Support FWS' anti-poaching efforts and help save elephants by signing the petition in support of stronger ivory regulations. In the past half century alone, Africa's elephant population has plummeted by 95%. Elephant slaughter in Africa is skyrocketing because of an increasing international demand for ivory — and the U.S. has the world's second largest market for illegal wildlife products. As a nation, if we can stop purchasing unlawful ivory, we can put a big dent in demand and curb poachers' activities. Only when the world stops buying ivory will poachers stop killing elephants. Please send a message to FWS and tell them you support their work to save the world's elephants. Rosa K. Care2 and ThePetitionSite Team
