The plight of elephants has never been as dire as it is today, with elephants under siege by humans and threatened by extinction. Illegal ivory poaching, trophy hunting, habitat degradation and capture for public display are fragmenting what remains elephant populations.
We have a proven commitment to ending elephant captivity and cruelty.
We couldn't carry out our life-saving work without the gifts of our generous supporters. Please, consider making a donation to In Defense of Animals, and help us continue to fight against elephant exploitation. All gifts, no matter how big or small, make a difference.
In Defense of Animals is influencing zoos and circuses to retire captive elephants to accredited sanctuaries, is working to keep elephants in the wild to protect their habitats. You can help us by visiting our Elephant Action Center and taking a stand for elephants everywhere.
