1357: Mary Ruwart – Zimbabwe’s Elephants

In Kenya, the elephant population dropped from 65,000 to 19,000 even though elephant hunting was forbidden. In Zimbabwe, however, natives can claim, or homestead, elephants living on their lands. Natives can legally sell permits to hunt them. Zimbabwe’s elephant population grew from 30,000 to 43,000. People will protect the environment when they own it and profit from it. —Mary J RuwartDownload Print Quality (7680×4020) 205KB  |  Normal Quality (3840×2010) 113KB
