Please pledge your support to sign our White House Petition 
We need to obtain 100,000+ signatures to launch the petition. Only those petitions that have reached THAT goal within 30 days will be viewed by the President.
The petition will demand serious action with regards to the current poaching crisis facing elephants, rhinos and other endangered wildlife.  
35,000+ elephants are massacred each year to meet China's demand for ivory trinkets. 

Please say NO to the ivory trade, NO to Rhino Horn Poaching and NO to any trade in animal body parts.
