In my humble opinion, if these rich bastards who think it's so "cool" to go on pretend safari were forced to turn all of their money over to animal preservation it would send out a VERY strong message to any and all ass holes who think it's okay to stalk and slaughter for their vanity!   *~*~*~*   In July 2015, a wealthy American hunter and his local guides lured Cecil, a well-known and beloved lion, off his nature preserve so that the lion could be killed for sport.  The brutality and heartlessness of this act has thrown into light the disgusting reality of trophy hunting and the devastating impact it has on animals and conservation efforts. So long as the world's wealthy can pay to kill wildlife, whom conservationists work so hard to protect, there will continue to be more cases like Cecil.

We need to put immediate pressure on China and other ivory-buying countries to do more to protect elephants and prevent the expansion of black markets. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service took a major step just days after 41 dead elephants were found in Zimbabwe, pledging to crush 6 million tons of seized "white gold" in an effort to remove it from the illegal market. This is a good start but there's still much more work to be done. Click HERE to sign the petition now and support elephants worldwide, before this majestic animal goes extinct!
