I was so shocked to learn that only 415,000 elephants remain compared to 10 million in 1930 that I decided to draw these illustrations.
Even though fighting the illegal ivory trade is tough, there are several organizations that try to help these beautiful animals and prevent elephants to face a similar fate as rhinos.
Besides drawing these illustrations, I also interviewed an undercover investigator and elephangelist Arthur Sniegon from Save the Elephants about the possible ways we can help elephants survive.
