Poachers Beware. With The Terminator, aka Hollywood actor Arnold @Schwarzenegger, taking a stand for African elephants there is nothing stopping us now in our global fight to protect our elephants.
In his new video, released “on behalf of The Wildlife Conservation Society“, reports Charlotte Krol and AP for The Telegraph, the Former Governor of California is featured in front of a military tank holding an ivory elephant tusk as he states his message. “Hey, stop killing 96 elephants every day just because of this ivory. Let’s get rid of the demand once and for all.” Then the explosions occur.
On his official Twitter account, Arnold @Schwarzenegger,he tweets “When @96Elephants & @TheWCS asked me to stop ivory trade & save elephants, I had an idea. #SaveTheElephants” See video “Blowing Up Ivory Demand”.
Replies on his Twitter include: “Let’s get this trending:
#PoachEggsNotElephants @Schwarzenegger @96Elephants@TheWCS”
And “@Schwarzenegger @96Elephants@TheWCS Thank You” followed by the Pink Floyd quote :
“All you touch and all you see, Is all your life will ever be.”

Thank you Arnold Schwarzenegger for helping to lead our fight to Save Elephants and to create awareness in our battle to end the illegal ivory trade.
The poachers have been forewarned and as The Terminator would say without hesitation, “I’ll Be Back.”
