A Namibian trophy hunting property is selling five young elephants, from age 4 to 8, to a zoo (Dubai Safari Park) in Dubai, UAE. The young animals will be subject to forceful removals from their herds, creating lasting trauma on the young animals and the herds that are left behind. Once arriving at the zoo, they will be condemned to permanent captivity.
African elephants are a majestic animal, synonymous with the natural wonders and heritage of Africa. They are highly intelligent with strong family bonds that can last a lifetime.
