The Federal Government of Nigeria took an ‘offensive’ action in protecting its dwindling elephant population by disposing of 2.5 tons of confiscated elephant tusks.
These tusks, which were valued at over $11.2 million (9.9 billion Naira), were reportedly seized from wildlife traffickers.
The government said the destruction of these tusks serves as a strong message against illegal wildlife trade and emphasizes the incumbent administration’s commitment to safeguarding its precious elephants.
