动物迁徙的资料英语—大象
A century ago there were five million elephants in Africa. Today there are fewer than 470,000. Populations have been decimated by habitat loss and poaching. But two parks in Malawi – Liwonde and Majete– have managed to keep the poachers out and are actually overcrowded.
The charity African Parks is managing the move to the more empty Nkhotakota Wildlife Reserve.
The elephants will be drugged and loaded onto trucks. Other animals will also be introduced to the reserve, including buffalo, zebra and impala. African Parks hopes this man-made migration will increase tourism in Malawi, which is one of the continent's poorest nations.
It's also a welcome glimmer of hope amid a wider picture of poaching, destruction and decline.
