In fact, elephant poaching – not to mention that of other animals like rhinos – has been steadily climbing in South Africa, which is home to an enormous and varied amount of wildlife. The numbers of elephants killed by poachers in the country has ballooned by almost a third, with 68 elephants killed nationwide in 2017 – compared to 46 in 2016. While trade in ivory has been illegal since 1989, the demand for ivory jewelry has not lessened, leading to an increase in poaching all across Africa.
