A HEAVILY PREGNANT ELEPHANT KILLED IN AMBOSELI

It takes 24 months to have a baby elephant, and just one day for a retard poacher to take its life and that of its mother… a heavily pregnant elephant killed in Amboseli yesterday. 

Via Amboseli Trust for Elephants: " A sad day in Amboseli- Yesterday we received report of an elephant spearing just outside the National Park, our team went out to ID the elephant and found that it was a member of the TD Family called Tanwira. She was only a young 14 year old female and heavily pregnant (see picture Tanwira lay at a far and the calf close), carrying her first calf who was only days away from being born. We found the calf and mother a short distance from one another, as hyenas had dragged the calf away from her womb. She died from a spear wound to the heart. The team from Big Life are working hard to capture those who carried out this vicious attack." Source: https://www.facebook.com/AmboseliElephant
