Save Elephant Families From Ivory Poachers

I've done this for years, no bought ivory. The Christmas before last my daughter and I were shopping and we saw this beautiful statue of a crane that would have been perfect for my parent's livingroom. Until I picked it up and realized what it was made of.

I agree and do not buy anthing that takes an animals life for ornaments or vanity (furs). I also boycott circuses as the elephants there are so cruelly mistreated.

Believe me, I will never buy ivory or any other product or line of clothing that is made by killing or harming animals. I truly think that it is awful what we are doing to our wildlife. The creatures of the Earth should be protected, not slaughtered. Myself, I have trouble even killing a bug. Even spiders, who frighten me a lot, I will go out of my way to try to get them in a container and take them outdoors if I find them in the house. I just so believe that all life deserves respect. I feel so awful for what is happening to these Elephants, and I wish taht I knew what more I could do to help them :(

Oh that just sickens me when I think about how the animals die just for their tusks. I wonder if the poachers would like to be killed just for their hair or toenails or some other trivial piece their body? I have never nor will I buy anything made of ivory. I still have a piano that my grandmother bought for me when I was a smll girl. My daughter now plays that piano. I have always heard the term 'tickle the ivory' for playing the piano. Surely those keys aren't ivory? Let's hope that was only in the distant past that they keys were real ivory. I would die if I thought those 88 strips of white were ivory. I won't knowingly by anything that was made by killing an animal.

Good initiative, the elephant poaching is a horrible business! though elephants are ofcourse not the only animals being poached.

tell me what u want me to do :)
