Black man has no sense of preservation.

Especially zoogerians.

Otherwise spotting an elephant in the wild (which in this case is quite open) should not really be a big deal.

Its meant to be the way a Canadian spots a bear in the woods. Intriguing, yes. But not extraordinary.

In Nigeria's case, it is extraordinary because we dont evn believe they exist again. No sense of wild life preservation. Gosh. We are all mad in this country. As in complete bonkers!

This is as a result of massive logging by Asian proxies in the middle belt and the South. Massive logging is also going on in the Cameroon. These elephants are being pressured out of there hatbitats by these Asian businesses who pay Africans to loot down everything in sight. Wouldn't be surprised if the elephant s gone by now since the huge tusks are badly needed is Asia..

We used to have lots of them in Edo state. Infact they are still in the Ovia region. Back then before the British came, a one time Iyase of Benin used to hunt these creatures around the ovia Bridge area of the Benin-Lagos road.

Ikuru has a federal government reserve. Killing a wild animals there is an invitation to spend some time in jail.


So u mean ikuru is a natural habitat to elephants or the govt brought them there?

We are so blessed with so much biodiversity in this land. It's so refreshing watching an adult elephant feeling so at home among fellow Nigerians. I salute the Ikuru indigene too and I hope the oil workers will not conserve that natural environment.
May God bless Nigeria.

Are elephants this extinct in Nigeria? In Kenya elephant sightings are a normal occurance in many parts of the country. A lone elephant is always definately male, an old one that has been chased away from it's 'park' by upcoming male 'youngins'. They are always big trouble though because they are over aggressive. Luckily in Kenya the KWS(Kenya Wildlife Service) is mandated by law to pay compensation to victims of human-wildlife conflict. Be it physical or damage of property caused by animals that raid farm, etc.

I knew it. The bush meat people are already salivating.
People in South Africa are making millions from tourists coming to see these animals in the wild. In Nigeria they are likely to see them in the cooking pot.
