*[Enwl-eng] The elephant butchers

[enwl]

 50,000 elephants are massacred for their tusks, every year -- and there are 
only 450,000 left!



                                There are about 100 elephants in this photo.
                                That's how many poachers kill every 24 
hours.










                                Together we could fund hundreds of 
undercover operations to stop wildlife traffickers getting away with mass 
murder.

                                Dear friends,

                                50,000 elephants are massacred for their 
tusks, every year -- and there are only 450,000 left! We're running out of 
time for these magnificent animals.

                                Experts agree: to stop the carnage, we have 
to target the criminal gangs and corrupt officials who are orchestrating the 
mass murder of Africa's elephants.

                                And we have a chance to do exactly that.

                                Working in nine African countries, a tiny 
team of undercover investigators is infiltrating the criminal networks and 
bringing them to justice. They're ruthlessly effective -- taking down 
illegal ivory syndicates responsible for killing up to 100,000 elephants!

                                Vladimir, you're part of our movement to 
defend life on Earth. This is a chance to directly fuel that fight. Together 
we can fund hundreds of new investigations to cripple the gruesome trade in 
animal parts. Our small donations, pooled from across the planet, will have 
a direct impact in the fight for elephants.

                                Let's power these investigators and 
accelerate Avaaz campaigns to protect wildlife and their vanishing habitats. 
The more we raise, the harder we can fight for these magnificent animals.

                                OTHER AMOUNT

                                As elephants become increasingly rare, 
hippos are now being butchered for their massive teeth. The war on wildlife 
is insatiable -- but undercover investigations by the EAGLE Network are 
having a massive impact. We're talking an average of 3 major arrests every 
week!

                                By pooling our donations, we could now power 
hundreds of new investigations -- and accelerate our fight to win the laws 
and treaties needed to protect life on Earth. If we raise enough, we could:

                                a.. Train and sustain dozens of undercover 
investigators to crack open some of the world's most-wanted wildlife 
trafficking networks;
                                b.. Scale up the number of anti-trafficking 
investigations in nine countries, potentially arresting hundreds of wildlife 
traffickers;
                                c.. Fund a huge delegation of indigenous 
leaders to meet decision makers at an upcoming nature summit in Brazil; and,
                                d.. Power hard-hitting Avaaz campaigns to 
protect the natural world and preserve the delicate web of life.
                                These brave investigators are one of the 
very last lines of defence for animals on the edge of existence. But without 
urgent funding, their work could grind to a halt. We cannot let it happen --  
let's supercharge their investigations to help stop the elephant massacre:

                                OTHER AMOUNT

                                From championing a global deal to put half 
the planet under protection, to working with Indigenous communities 
defending their lands -- our movement is charging ahead to protect life on 
Earth. We're also helping to establish a marine protected area in the Congo, 
and we've bought land to stop the destruction of a snow leopard habitat in 
the Himalayas. Now let's take a powerful stand for Africa's elephants!

                                With hope and fierce determination,

                                Mike, Adela, Camille, Kaitlin, Bert and the 
whole team at Avaaz
