Ivory belongs to elephants elephants
 A hundred years ago we had over Ten million elephants. Since then there has been a massive decline in numbers. During 1979 and 1989 half of the population of African elephants were lost. Elephant census estimates we are down to less than 400,000
Today on earth more elephants are killed than are born.
It doesn't take a mathematician to realise that the elephant population in the wild is diminishing at an astounding rate. Human Elephant conflict due to expansion of habitat, farming across sacred elephant corridors, poaching for Ivory and climate change all takes its toll on the humble African elephant.
"Wildlife doesn't have much time, and it definitely doesn't have much space."

We made the decision to make a limited edition high quality luxury coffee table book. Kinder to our planet in the most sustainable way we could, rather than printing many thousands of copies of cheap books.
Saving animals while avoiding damage to the planet as much as possible
is far better than
saving animals and killing the planet.

We do not sell through Amazon or any other fulfilment distribution centre because we need as much profit from each book to go towards Saving Elephants.
We do not sell through Stores on the high street because the store would require at least 50% or more of the profit from this book.
We did not use a publisher for this book allegedly they would only give us between 5% and 10%  from the wholesale cost of each book.
