Zero elephants killed in 4 years. A remarkable achievement by @TheWCS and @BauchiState in Yankari Game Reserve, #Nigeria.

Tell Congress: support the WILD Act, a bipartisan bill imperative to conserving wildlife and wild places. Programs vital to the protection of elephants and rhinos, great apes, marine turtles, and tigers are hanging in the balance. Make your voice heard: bit.ly/2Rnb4pB

OPINION: A Momentous Decision on Elephant Ivory Falls to Europe | By Cathy Novelli, former U.S. Undersecretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy & the Environment @WCS/a-momentous-decision-on-elephant-ivory-falls-to-europe-ac116613c691" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@WCS/a-momento… #elephants #ivory #wildlifetrade #EuropeanUnion #Europe #wildlifetrafficking #conservation

One of the @wcs_congo team’s camera traps recently captured this image of a female #elephant and her first infant in #MbeliBai in Noubale-Ndoki National Park. Scientists there gather important information on the life histories & family bonds of local elephants, gorillas & more.

The actions of the current Administration are putting wildlife in danger. Proposed cuts could undo decades of work fighting illegal wildlife trade & protecting endangered species. Your support is needed more than ever: bit.ly/2K8MSss

Last week @TheWCS and @BauchiState Government renewed the co-management agreement for @YankariGReserve in #Nigeria for another 10 years. WCS has made a long-term commitment to ensure protection and eventual recovery of Yankari's #elephants and #lions.

Say no to cuts that will hurt elephants, tigers, rhinos, & countless other species. Tell Congress: no cuts to programs that combating wildlife trafficking, protect forests from illegal logging operations, reduce poverty, & strengthen our national security. bit.ly/2K3ldIB

Last December, we saw a spike in #elephant killings in Mozambique's Niassa National Reserve & had to scramble to help respond. It could happen again, in Niassa or elsewhere. We want to be prepared in case it does. Please make a tax-deductible gift now: bit.ly/2IRzgQL

In & around Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park, @wcs_congo & partners protect a stable #elephant population. The US government-funded Central Africa Regional Program for the Environment (CARPE) is essential to the future of these animals. Learn more: bit.ly/2KmQC55 #CARPE
