Botswana Threatens to Send 20,000 Elephants to Germany | Vantage with Palki Sharma
The nation of Botswana in Southern Africa is an elephant conservation success story. The country is home to one-third of the world's elephants. Over 130,000 elephants roam Botswana, where they are protected from poachers and other threats. But to sustain its conservation efforts, Botswana resorts to allowing elephant hunts. Botswana says the money from trophy hunts goes into conservation efforts. But Europe seems to be uncomfortable with this. Germany plans to make it more difficult for its citizens to import hunting trophies. In response to Germany's unilateral move, the President of Botswana, Mokgweetsi Masisi has threatened to send them a "gift" of 20,000 elephants.
