Save the Elephants is saving this beautiful animal from extinction. Desired mostly in the East as a status symbol and as an investment, the ivory from elephants is a high value item. Organized crime and traffickers smuggle tusks for profit. It is estimated that one elephant is killed every 15 minutes.
