Rumble in African jungle, what about our elephants?
View(s):With the Yala wildlife area still boiling in the drought, the once proud and majestic elephants are being reduced to skeletal animals desperately searching for water and food. President Mahinda Rajapaksa on Tuesday told a New York meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative that Sri Lanka would support the organisation’s Elephant Action Network that works for the conservation of mainly the gravely threatened African elephants. This is a pathetic herd photographed in the Yala Sanctuary this week. Pic by Janath de Silva
