Save the Elephants!

As you may have noticed, The Shipping Monkeys have a fondness for elephants.  Our lives would be bereft without elephants.  So, please, help us save the elephants.  There are many places you can donate to the cause.

The Wildlife Conservation Society

The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust

Burn the Ivory

International Elephant Foundation

Elephant Voices

Save the Elephants

The Elephant Family

The Amboseli Trust For Elephants - Here you get a chance to name an elephant for a donation of $2500.

The Save Elephant Foundation - They have a shop with cool elephant related stuff but the prices are all in a currency I don't understand so I have no idea how much any of it costs.

Tusk - They have a shop where you will find all the Tusk apparel you will ever need.

The Elephant Highway - If you donate $25 you get an elephant keychain, an elephant photo and an adoption certificate.  They also have a shop so you can show your support with some great T-shirts.

The World Wildlife Fund - If you adopt an elephant you get a photo, a species card, an adoption certificate, a gift bag and a plush elephant of your very own

But the very best way to help the elephants is to eat chocolate.  At L.A. Burdick you can get chocolate elephants and a portion of the proceeds will go to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Fund.  You can only get these delicious elephants for a limited time so you better hurry!
