🇨🇦 Canada banned the import & export of raw elephant ivory and rhino horn in 2024 after 700,000+ Canadians spoke up. Then this spring, 479 rhino horns were pointed toward Ontario. The door is closed. Now we need to lock it.

🐘 What if we were more like elephants? Our 2025 campaign explored the qualities of elephants; from their social bonds and cooperation to their empathy, memory and care for their families. This year, Be More Like Elephants builds on that message by challenging us to put those qualities into practice.

UPDATE: 15 elephants have died in Kenya’s Amboseli ecosystem, and questions remain about what happened. Authorities are also examining whether the elephants consumed contaminated crops near their habitat. www.the-star.co.ke/news/2026-08...

Did you know? 🐘 In Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park, decades of elephant poaching led to an evolutionary shift: 👉 The number of tuskless females rose from ~18% to over 50%. 👉 Tuskless elephants are more likely to survive and pass on their genes. #WorldElephantDay
