Download or read book Elephants on the Edge written by G. A. Bradshaw and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-06 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “At times sad and at times heartwarming . . . Helps us to understand not only elephants, but all animals, including ourselves” (Peter Singer, author of Animal Liberation). Drawing on accounts from India to Africa and California to Tennessee, and on research in neuroscience, psychology, and animal behavior, G. A. Bradshaw explores the minds, emotions, and lives of elephants. Wars, starvation, mass culls, poaching, and habitat loss have reduced elephant numbers from more than ten million to a few hundred thousand, leaving orphans bereft of the elders who would normally mentor them. As a consequence, traumatized elephants have become aggressive against people, other animals, and even one another; their behavior is comparable to that of humans who have experienced genocide, other types of violence, and social collapse. By exploring the elephant mind and experience in the wild and in captivity, Bradshaw bears witness to the breakdown of ancient elephant cultures. But, she reminds us, all is not lost. People are working to save elephants by rescuing orphaned infants and rehabilitating adult zoo and circus elephants, using the same principles psychologists apply in treating humans who have survived trauma. Bradshaw urges us to support these and other models of elephant recovery and to solve pressing social and environmental crises affecting all animals—humans included. “This book opens the door into the soul of the elephant. It will really make you think about our relationship with other animals.” —Temple Grandin, author of Animals in Translation

Download or read book Ellie s Elephants written by Ellie Barnard and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-05-20 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elephant lover Ellie has had a love of elephants since birth. She naturally gravitated to anything and everything regarding elephants. She has a room full of elephant toys, always receives elephant knick knacks as gifts, and she reads as much as she can about elephants. She even dreams of being a large animal vet, with a specialty of treating elephants. As part of her love, she has traveled to Sri Lanka, Thailand and Nepal to see her beloved elephants up close and personal. What she learned through experience, was a sad realization of how poorly treated elephants are, and how the tourism industry, one she herself was once a part of, is causing sad situations for this beloved creature. However, what she also found, were dedicated organizations committed to making a difference. This book came to be out of one little girl's pure love for elephants, her own encounters around the world, and her desire to raise funds to support organizations looking to provide better solutions.
Download or read book The Last Elephants written by Colin Bell and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Africa-wide Great Elephant Census of 2016 produced shocking findings: a decimated elephant population whose numbers were continuing to plummet. Elephants are killed, on average, every 15–20 minutes – a situation that will see the final demise of these intelligent, extraordinary animals in less than three decades. They are a species in crisis. This magnificent book offers chapters written by the most prominent people in the realm of conservation and wildlife, among them researchers, conservationists, film makers, criminologists, TV personalities and journalists. Photographs have been selected from among Africa’s best wildlife photographers, and the Foreword is provided by Prince William. It is hoped this book will create awareness of the devastating loss of elephant lives in Africa and stem the tide of poaching and hunting; that it will inspire the delegates to CITES to make informed decisions to ensure that all loopholes in the ivory trade are closed; and that countries receiving and using ivory (both legal and poached) – primarily China, Vietnam, Laos and Japan – ban and strenuously police its trade and use within their borders, actively pursuing and arresting syndicate leaders driving the cruel poaching tsunami. This book is also a tribute to the many people who work for the welfare of elephants, particularly those who risk their lives for wildlife each day, often for little or no pay – in particular the field rangers and the anti-poaching teams; and to the many communities around Africa that have elected to work with elephants and not against them. The Last Elephants – is the title prophetic? We hope not, but the signs are worrying.
