EXTRAS U.S. ZOOS WIN - BUT WILD ELEPHANTS LOSE APPEALS COURT DECLINES TO STOP SHIPMENT OF YOUNG AFRICAN ELEPHANTS FROM SWAZILAND ELEPHANTS TAKEN FROM WILD TO BE CONFINED TO SMALL ENCLOSURES FOREVER This importation sets a dangerous precedent and opens the floodgates for the importation of threatened species that are protected by national and international laws and treaties. Leading wild African elephant researchers and habitat experts, including Cynthia Moss, Joyce Poole, Keith Lindsey and others, have condemned the import of these elephants - highlighting the devastating consequences this import will have on the individual elephants, on those left behind in Swaziland, and on African elephants in general The zoos denied the commercial nature of this transaction by claiming an educational/conservation purpose to the import, but their own data do not back up their contentions about the value of zoos in the conservation realm. Elephants in captivity do not breed well probably due to the stress and health problems associated with captivity. As a result, zoos and circuses will continue to want to get elephants from the wild to support their businesses.

    Extractions: NEWS PROJECTS EDUCATION GET INVOLVED ... RSPCA Report Zoos: A haven for elephants? Of all the Earth's creatures, the elephant has always been a favourite. Its immense size, stature and presence have captured man's imagination and respect for thousands of years. And yet, much of our association with elephants has been an exploitative one. Captured from the wild as far back as 2000 BC, the elephant has been used in manual labour, trained to take part in ceremonial processions and perform in circuses and even to form the vanguard in military campaigns. Zoos, by comparison are quite a recent development. Yet, since 1800, it is estimated that 3,000 to 4,000 elephants have been taken from the wild to supply zoos and circuses. Around 1,500 elephants are currently exhibited in zoos around the world and despite a greater understanding of elephant biology and ecology, elephants are still frequently exhibited as little more than objects of amusement. Britain saw its first elephant in 1254 when Louis IX presented an African elephant to Henry III. In 2002, a total of 93 elephants were held at 15 zoos. The concrete, barred and barren environment that typified the 19th Century zoo enclosure is a far cry from the elephant's natural environment of forest or savannah but all to often nature appears to be disregarded, with zoos justifying the continued artificial confinement of elephants as vital for the preservation of the species. But what evidence supports their claims? Does a zoo provide optimum conditions for a highly social animal like the elephant? Are zoos releasing elephants bred in captivity back into the wild?

    Extractions: CNN International. BANGKOK, Thailand (CNN) Veterinarians are racing against time to try to save the lives of wild elephants dying from an unknown cause. The team began its relief efforts after two elephants from a herd of about 100 were found dead near a watering hole in a district of Prachuab Khirikhan province, officials said. There were outcries from wildlife conservation groups, whose members suggested that area pineapple growers may have poisoned the elephants in an effort to protect their crops. It was possible that the animals died after drinking poisoned water or being infected by a deadly virus in a southern province. One official leans toward the second theory. "The cause of death is still a mystery. But it is unlikely that they died from poisoned water as earlier suspected, because fish were alive in the watering hole," said district chief Paiboon Chansilp. "The veterinarians believe that the elephants might have been infected by some virus and died," he added. Paiboon said that after several days of trekking, the veterinarians found that a number of elephants were ill and urgently needed help.

    Extractions: featuring Ms Bilaibhan Sampatisiri, President of Treasure Our Elephants Fund - Foundation for the Conservation of Northern Elephants RETURN TO THE WILD Following generations of domestication, the domesticated elephant is totally dependent on the mahout for its survival. A return to the wild is easier said than done and the release of elephants back into the wild, without adequate preparation, is cause for concern. Homo sapiens , they have lost their fear of humans. This increases the likelihood of elephants seeking out convenient sources of food in orchards, plantations and farms, bringing upon them the risk of being shot or poisoned.

    Extractions: But the Zoos Say ... Zoos, like circuses, are part of the entertainment industry. Zoos know that their increasingly sluggish attendance soars when they can feature babies, particularly baby elephants. In 2000, a week after a baby elephant was born at the Woodland Park Zoo, zoo attendance doubled. After two baby African elephants were born at the Indianapolis Zoo, attendance and membership rose 10 percent and $10 million in gifts from foundations and individuals poured in. More than 10,000 people visited the Pittsburgh Zoo during the weekend that a new baby elephant was first put on display. So, getting babies in means money in the bank for zoos and hence the problem.

Seeking to conserve the specifics indefinitely, AWF continues to adjust its strategy to address the evolving threats to elephants in Africa. Alfred Kikoti: Expanding AWF's Elephant Conservation Work into West Kilimanjaro The Kilimanjaro Heartland is a 2.3 million hectare landscape and is extremely rich with biodiversity. Ecosystems range from afro-montane to woodland, vast savannah and aquatic. The elephant is found in the montane forests and the low lying plains across the borders of Kenya and Tanzania. The population of elephants in the Amboseli and Longido, Tanzania regions of the Kilimanjaro Heartland is estimated to be 1,500 individuals.

    Extractions: When, in October 1957, the USSR launched the first man-made earth satellite, the basketball-sized Sputnik, it caught the United States off guard and sent the government into fits. Not only had the Soviets exploded an atomic bomb years before the Americans predicted they would, but now they were leading the "space race." In response, the Defense Department approved funding for a new U.S. satellite project, headed by former Nazi SS officer Wernher von Braun, and created, in 1958, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to make certain that the United States forever after maintained "a lead in applying state-of-the-art technology for military capabilities and to prevent technological surprise from her adversaries." Almost half a century later, what's left of the USSR is a collapsed group of half-failed states, while the U.S. stands alone as the globe's sole hyperpower. Yet DARPA, the agency for an arms-race world, seems only to be warming up to the chase. There may be no country left to take the lead from us, the nearest military competitor being China which reportedly had $65 billion in military expenditures in 2002 (compared to our $466 billion according to GlobalSecurity.org) and which, only in 2003, put its first "Taikonaut" into outer space. Undaunted, DARPA continues to develop high-tech weapons systems for 2025-2050 and beyond – some of them standard fare like your run-of-the-mill. hypersonic bombers, others more exotic.
