Monday, September 22, 2014: Magnificent Matriarchy: Saving the Elephant

The State of the Elephant, an Archive of Ancient Wisdom


"Nobody needs ivory. Everyone needs elephants."
Val Ibarra speaks with some of the inspiring organizers of the Global March for Elephants & Rhinos happening on Saturday, October 4th, World Animal Day. Co-founder of the local group March for Elephants, Rosemary Alles, and Tamara Birdsall share the story of the Elephant, and why we need to & how we can save this keystone species and magnificent matriarchy.

Saturday, October 4th is World Animal Day, and in 85 cities around the world - including San Francisco - groups will be participating in the March for Elephants and Rhinos. In San Francisco meet at 10:30 AM at St. Mary's Square. Why? Because poaching illegal ivory and legal ivory manufacturing have put African elephants in danger of extinction within a decade! Rosemary Alles and Tamara Birdsall tell us the story of the Elephant, and why we need to & how we can save this keystone species and magnificent matriarchy.
