Elephants are under a barrage of threats – from poaching to habitat loss, human conflict and climate change. Every year nearly 4,000 elephants are killed to sustain the illegal trade of ivory. In order to understand the best way to protect elephants in today’s world, additional support for research, education and conservation programs is needed to ensure their future.
You can support The National Elephant Center as it works to protect elephants through partnerships with conservation programs and ongoing public education about elephants and their habitats. Your funds will help us develop new initiatives and help existing research and conservation programs expand their impact. Last year alone, accredited zoos participated in more than 85 elephant research projects, providing a world of new insights and discoveries regarding these magnificent animals.
Supporting The National Elephant Center supports all these causes while spearheading new initiatives and programs designed to ensure elephants remain part of our future.
With your help, our dedicated team of scientists, researchers and passionate conservationists can make a real difference for elephants.
