Save elephants from being eaten. Urge governments in both central Africa and Thailand to strictly enforce laws that would effectively end the killing and trading elephants for their meat.

Signed. But why are they eating elephants? How dumb are these people to kill such a magnificent creature for its sex organs and trunks? With the world population spiralling out of control - the last thing we need is increased sexual activity and procreation.

What kind of a nauseating science fiction horror movie is this?

It is going to STOP.

To me it is like this: we might as well start eating humans, elephants are my favorite animals, and a close kin. I am disgusted. When will human destruction end? As Albert Schweitzer said, “Man can hardly even recognize the devils of his own creation.”

I have sign with great gusto. Thanks Cal.

Это ужасная ошибка, употреблять мясо таких прекрасных животных. Их и так осталось мало. Нельзя допустить исчезновение слонов. Прекратите эту бойню.

When there are too many elephants, they get killed. When there are too many people, then the elephants get killed. I think there are too many people on this planet making babies and then they have to kill anything to eat. This is not balanced.

We must stop human population growth, and actually start reducing it, or there will be no other sentient beings and their needed habitat, forests, reefs, dolpins, whales, fish, water or land left. Just more desert, famine, thirst, crowding, pollution, sewage, crime and garbage.

Gladly signed. What noble creatures. Their loss will mean a far sadder world. Thanks

ELEPHANTS WILL BECOME EXTINCT IF NOT PROTECTED. POACHERS STEAL THEIR TUSKS AND DESTROY THEIR LIVES IN THE PROCESS. NOW, HUMANS ARE EATING THEM? THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. THEY ARE ALREADY SO ENDANGERED IT IS HEART-BREAKING. WE CANNOT ALLOW THE POACHERS OR MURDERERS WHO KILL THEM FOR THEIR MEAT CONTINUE TO DRIVE THEM INTO EXTINCTION.
