About Elephants

Asian elephant populations have decreased dramatically as their habitat is encroached upon by logging and agricultural clearance. Forest clearance is a worldwide problem destroying nature, damaging communities and distorting trade. Around half of the world's original forests have now disappeared, and they are still being removed at a rate ten times higher than any possible level of re-growth.
