A major project was announced today by the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) to help curb elephant poaching in Africa.
We naturally support this big initiative but we urge the partners and participants to really work together (not just on paper) and to be creative and courageous in their approach.
To win this war we need new strategies, more sophisticated thinking and bolder moves.
And more focus on intelligence and traffickers.
The Clinton Global Initiative and 16 conservation organizations have announced that they are investing $80 million over three years to stem the epidemic of elephant poaching in Africa.
