    As Martin Buber once said, “an animal’s eyes have the power to speak a great language”. As the years go by, numerous animals are becoming extinct by man’s lack of compassion. They used to roam freely, without fear, in the wild, although; with rising population, the wilderness is no longer their home. Therefore, the animals are forced to share their land with uncompassionate humans. One example is the Borneo Pygmy Elephant found in Southeast Asia. Their thriving population has diminished to less than 1,500 in the past years. An analysis of the endangered Borneo Pygmy Elephant shows their characteristics and habitat, what is threatening them, and how they can be saved.…

    The number of elephants and rhinos are declining in nations where animals are housed on national parks and rising in nations where the animals are privately owned and farmed by individuals due to property rights and private goods. Most nations where elephants and rhinos are housed on national parks a common ownership has been established by the government and the responsibility for these animals is not individualized by any one person, thus, the proper care that is needed is not delivered. However, in nations where individuals are allowed to own elephants and rhinos, responsibility is clear and maintenance is adhered. Nations were there are individual owners the stakes for healthy animals are much higher and necessary.…

    When going to kill this animal he recalls that the elephant is essentially worth nothing if it is dead, but is worth more if it is brought back alive, it is frustrating how he see’s this elephant as money rather than a harmless animal, similarly to how the “ British saw Burma as a valuable piece of property—another metaphorical link between the elephant and colonialism.” ("The LitCharts Study Guide to Shooting an Elephant."

    An Elephantine Analysis In Charles Siebert's article The Elephant Crackup, the author employs a nuanced and compelling rhetorical strategy that seamlessly integrates firsthand narratives, expert opinions, and emotional appeals to shed light on the profound consequences of human exploitation on elephants. Through the deliberate use of linguistic choices, comparisons to human tragedies, and a careful balance of ethos, pathos, and logos, Siebert effectively engages the reader, emphasising the urgent need for compassionate rehabilitation practices and fostering a deeper understanding of the complex interplay between human actions and elephant behaviour. Charles Siebert establishes his credibility as a firsthand narration (Kairos) using an anecdote,…

    The statistics are that in Kenya the elephant population has decimated from 167,000 to 27,000 in 2013. Tower has learned that some experts have predicted that the elephants will be extinct in Kenya within a decade. The other statistics that is involved is that in both Tanzania and Zimbabwe there were 300 elephants that were poisoned in a single massacre. The U.S Fish and Wildlife Service, in April 2014, suspended the import of elephant trophies from both nations. One of the most important source that Tower uses is Satsumo. Satsumo is the Department of Wildlife and National Parks employee who tagged along with him and the Waldrips on the safari ride. He believes that Botswana’s hunting ban may ultimately turn out badly for the elephants. His reason is that “there will be more poachers and more elephants will get out of the reserve”. He also believes they will get to people’s crop fields. One possible solution to the survival of the elephants is that may involve people paying lots of money to shoot them for fun. All of this is going to turn out bad for the…

    A young Michael Byers in great detail states that “The stuffed African elephant on its circular dais in the rotunda was composed of billions of skin cells and tiny cilia, and its ivory tusks wore an unfalsifiable brown patina of age.” (73) Young Michael Byers uses very descriptive words to share his admiration with us. How amazing is what he is witnessing, the elephant is really old and the brown patina stands as proof of its age. But as an adult he merely says that “There were ten million African elephants in 1930, and that now there are only thirty-five thousand” they were once great but know they are almost gone.…

    Both elephants and humans are alike in many ways and, therefore, should of have empathy toward each other’s lives. Aside from the fact that both man and pachyderm are mammals, their culture’s and the structure of their society are strikingly similar. In the short story, “An Elephant Crackup,” Siebert provides examples where human life and elephant life can relate to one another: “Young elephants are raised within an extended, multitiered network of doting female caregivers that includes the birth mother, grandmothers, aunts and friends (Siebert 529).” This greatly relates to human society in which females are also the primary caretakers of their offspring. Family is important in the elephant culture as well as in human culture. The fact that humans are breaking the ties within family bonds has caused elephants to…

    In addition, you can help provide captive elephants with the best possibly life. Boycott circuses, whose unethical treatment includes chaining elephants up by their feet and trunks, as well as beating them frequently. Encourage zoos to create environments similar to African elephants’ native habitat. They should be able to encompass elephant families and their travel patterns, and they should be located in a warm climate so that the elephants can spend all year outside.…

    Around two million years ago the elephant species split in two. The two groups where forest elephants and savanna elephants. There are 100,000 forest elephants left and around 400,000 savanna elephants are left. I million elephants lived about 40 years ago. Over a decade the population plummeted 65%.
