Section 3
In 2012,/about 10% of all the African elephants/were killed/just for their ivory. In order to focus on protecting elephants,/my friend and I/founded a non-profit organization,/Tears of the African Elephant.
The organization aims to promote the awareness/of ivory use in Japan. Japan had been importing a lot of ivory/until the late 1980s. Even today,/some people buy ivory products/casually. They might be supporting illegal hunting/without noticing it. The key to saving elephants/is to know the facts/about ivory.
I love seeing the endless horizon,/the blue sky,/and white clouds/in the savanna. Above all,/I love the energetic wild animals living there. Therefore,/I continue working hard/to preserve African elephants/and other wildlife/in this beautiful place.
