Today is World Elephant Day This day was created to raise awareness around the urgent plight of African and Asian elephants and to share knowledge and positive solutions for the better care and management of captive and wild elephants. Both African and Asian elephants face extinction with African elephants being Vulnerable and Asian elephants being Endangered on the IUCN Red List of threatened species. The current population estimates are about 400,000 for African elephants and 40,000 for Asian elephants, although it has been argued that these numbers are much too high! Miss Earth South Africa
