Project Peril: Save Elephants from Starvation

URGENT: Elephants near total starvation need your help.

Every day elephants eat on average 10% of their bodyweight, which means keeping them fed and healthy is a mammoth task. For elephants working in tourist elephant “camps”, getting the necessary nutrition to stay safe and healthy is even more difficult. These animals are sometimes forced into 24-hour leg and neck chains.

Human population growth is also a constant threat to elephant habitat and food supply. As deforestation and agriculture destroy their natural habitat, elephants increasingly find themselves in conflict with humans, leading to hundreds of human and elephant deaths every year.

That’s why Project Peril is committed to working with the best nonprofits to save elephants from starvation, secure habitat for elephants, reduce human-elephant conflicts, and halt the ivory trade.

You can help. Your gifts can provide the food these elephants so desperately need, just to stay alive. Just $50 covers a day's food and care for one elephant. Your donation can save these majestic beasts from going hungry.
