What can you do to save the elephant?
The good news is, all hope is not lost for the African elephant. The effort to save the African elephant and other threatened or endangered species requires cooperation and support at the international, national, regional and individual levels. You can help this cause by:

Refusing to buy products made from wild animal parts.

Learning more about the elephant's threatened status by visiting World Wildlife Fund at http://www.worldwildlife.org, The International Elephant Foundation at http://www.elephantconservation.org, The American Zoo and Aquarium Association at http://www.aza.org, or at http://www.azaelephantconservation.org.

Joining The Toledo Zoo and becoming active in other conservation organizations of your choice. Donate to the ARC Fund. The Toledo Zoo’s Animal Rescue and Conservation (ARC) Fund was established to support our critical work to save and preserve the many endangered species in our care.

Call The Toledo Zoo Education Department at (419) 385-5721 to learn other ways you can help conserve threatened or endangered species and the habitats they require for survival.
