This site has a large amount of information on elephants from their anatomy to the cultures they form in the wild. Also, it is an important source for
links, news,
conservation, books, and much more. The focus
of this site is to share some of the amazing stories, facts, and characteristics of the largest land mammal still in existence today. The
goal
of this page is to prevent needless suffering, to ultimately save the elephant beyond being caged for our entertainment, and to educate people beyond our generally narrow understanding of elephants (please see our mission statement). Elephants are amazing animals to see in their own environment. They
are incredibly social creatures who have lasting memories, and can communicate over long distances through low range sound waves. They show a range of cognitive capabilities and social behaviour which most people, especially those
that benefit from using elephants, would like to reserve for human beings "They are a large, funny animal, and they seem to know when they have done something dumb. They convey a sense
of knowing how they fit into the world." (J .Poole quoted in
The Fate Of The Elephant) They are truly amazing! Please stay a while and learn more about the elephant... |
