sponsor an elephant

A border guard in Myanmar takes bribes to smuggle elephants into Thailand so he can travel to World Cup soccer matches, according to an undercover investigation by TRAFFIC, the wildlife trade monitoring network of World Wildlife Fund (WWF). The report found that so many live elephants have been smuggled to support "elephant trekking" tourism in Thailand that some parts of the Myanmar appear to have lost their elephant populations, making it more important than ever that people adopt or sponsor elephants to protect their future.
