Humans and elephants have coexisted for thousands of years, often in harmony, with both species keeping to their natural habitats and territories. However, expansion of the human population has led to our encroaching more and more on the elephants’ territories. This shift has created an increasingly tense relationship between us, as both species fight for their space and survival. The current reality is that people are threatening elephants’ very existence. Poachers hunt elephants to profit from their tusks; some people hunt elephants for sport; and corporations and communities displace them by taking over their roaming grounds. While many people around the world have tremendous compassion for the majestic animals, their numbers continue to fall.
To help raise awareness for the dangers as well as wonders that elephants face, Young Arrow and Toppsta will be gifting copies of new book The Elephant Girl, along with a Fahlo bracelet, to one lucky classroom.
Enter our giveaway on 3rd August on Twitter for your chance to win.
Fahlo work in partnership with Save the Elephants in Kenya and a portion of all proceeds go towards the organisation, which works to protect wild elephants. Their bracelet tracks a wild elephant via an exclusive tracking map, so the class will be able to follow their elephant’s journey over a year in the wild, allowing new creature and human connections to be formed.
