Threatening Elephant

The threat posed by this elephant to the photographer pales into insignificance when compared to the threat posed by the photographer's species to the elephant population in general.

According to Wikipedia:
Poaching significantly reduced the population of Loxodonta in certain regions during the 20th century. In the ten years preceding an international ban in the trade in ivory in 1990 the African elephant population was more than halved from 1.3 million to around 600,000.[30][31] An example of how the ivory trade causes poaching pressure is in the eastern region of Chad. There, the estimated elephant population was 400,000 as recently as 1970, but by 2006 the number had dwindled to about 10,000.

Additionally, the magnitude of poaching during 2006-2012 has been large, including some 3,000 elephants slaughtered during the three-yearp... more »

Thanks to everyone in China and Vietnam who still believes that RHINO HORN can cure disease...
You are all ensuring my kids may not see a live rhino in the wild by the time they're grown up.

PLEASE SHARE AND MAKE THIS GO VIRAL
More than 260 rhinos have been poached in 2013 alone!
RHINO HORN IS NOT MEDICINE - IT'S BASICALLY FINGERNAILS!

You may not like to see this, but it's necessary that many people see the reality of rhino poaching. IF you report this photo as unsuitable you are just a douche.

A rhino crime scene: The recent poaching incident at Borakalalo. Thanks to demand from the East, rhino horn is ounce-for-ounce worth more than platinum or gold.

Double-banded Sandgrouse
(Pterocles bicinctus)

A species of ground living bird in the Pteroclididae family. It is found in arid parts of southern Africa.

I was lucky to spot this pair - they were almost invisible in the high grass and against the stoney ground.
