PAVED ROADS AND WILDLIFE DO NOT MIX One of the many things that top scientists predict if a highway is put through the Serengeti is extremely high incidence of wildlife being hit by speeding cars. It doesnt matter how many signs up put up, or road bumps - people will still speed. Especially commercial trucks trying to make schedules. It has been proven time and time again. This heart breaking video was taken in Zambia. A young elephant calf was struck by a speeding vehicle and its back and legs were broken. The desperate family tries in vain to get it to stand on its feet. In the end a ranger how to shoot it to put it out of its misery. NO ROAD THROUGH THE SERENGETI - ADOPT THE SOUTHERN ROUTE!! IF WE CANT SAVE THE SERENGETI - WHAT CAN WE SAVE? Please help us by donating to our legal defense fund to help Africa Network for Animal Welfare [ANAW] in their fight against Tanzanias appeal agains the EACJ (East African Court of Justice) which ruled in June that the government of Tanzania can not build a bitumen (tarmac) road through the Serengeti.
