Adopt an Elephant

It’s said that an elephant never forgets. But if we don’t act, wild elephants may soon be nothing more than a memory.

In as little as a century, wild elephant populations have plummeted by 90%. With African elephant populations dropping from over 12 million to approximately 400,000. Killed by poachers for both bushmeat and to supply the illegal ivory trade, as well as being impacted by habitat loss, encroachment, and human-wildlife conflict, all elephants face an uncertain future.

When you adopt an elephant through DSWF, you’ll contribute directly to their work to save this iconic species. Your support could supply an orphan elephant with essential medical and veterinary care, provide support and vital equipment to ground rangers and aerial patrols protecting wild and released orphan elephants and help to promote human-wildlife coexistence.
