When is World Elephant Day? Why set up World Elephant Day?

August 12, in order to protect elephants.

As of August 2020, 12 is now the eighth year of the establishment of World Elephant Day. According to the data, more than 100 elephants may be hunted every day. In just a few years, the number of elephants has dropped a lot. In 20 13 years, people have killed more than 20,000 elephants. In order to appeal to people to protect elephants and stop hunting elephants, this is also the reason for the establishment of World Elephant Day.

1. Elephants are our friends. Elephants and humans have always been good friends, and elephants often help us. In those days when there were no means of transportation, people in some areas used elephants as a means of transportation, but now that technology is developed, people no longer need to use elephants as a means of transportation. But in order to repay those kindness, we should protect elephants and not be ungrateful and hunt them.

2. Elephants are an indispensable part of nature. As a part of nature, elephants play a great role in nature. Elephant dung can help plants provide fertilizer and make them grow healthily. Moreover, the elephant is also a clearing machine in the forest, which can provide an open living space for other animals. Once the elephant is lost, plants will lose their diversity and may not become the beautiful nature today.

Third, refusing to use ivory ivory is the tooth on the elephant, and it is also a weapon used by elephants to defend. Somehow, people found that the value of ivory was high, which led people to look for elephants one after another. They hunted elephants just for their ivory. When cutting ivory, half of the elephant's face will be cut off, and a lot of blood loss may make the elephant unable to stand up again. In order to protect elephants from hunters, we should all refuse to use ivory, so as to fundamentally put an end to this phenomenon.

On World Elephant Day, it is everyone's responsibility to protect elephants.
