Dear Elephants:

Elephant Spoken Here was following in giant footsteps by choosing the 12th of August as our inaugural day. That goes without saying.

The footprints that cause us the most concern, however, are yours, our elephants. 

Protecting your species from the endless greed of poachers. Saving your species from human elephant conflict when more and more of your habitat is encroached upon.

Elephant Spoken Here will continue to serve as a voice for you, our wild elephants in Africa & Asia, and for you, our captive elephants around the globe.

We would like to think Elephant Spoken Here’s voice, along with others, such as those of World Elephant Day, can only make us stronger in our mutual support of the cause of elephant conservation.

 

 

You, our elephants, deserve so much more in your time on this earth. 

You, our elephants, deserve to live.

 

Sincerely,

Your humble servant,

Savannah Crisp

 

P.S. Happy seventh birthday Elephant Spoken Here! 

        Happy anniversary World Elephant Day!
