African and Asian elephants are under threat; around 55 African elephants are killed a day for their tusks. Key populations are in decline due to poaching and a shrinking habitat.
In Asia, elephants have disappeared from approximately 85% of their historic range. Demand for ivory in Asia means poaching is an ever-present threat for African elephants. From just £3 a month, you can adopt an elephant and help protect elephant habitats and reduce poaching, and bring our world back to life.
Animal adoptions like yours give a huge boost to our work. They help fund our work to protect elephant habitat, reduce poaching and address human-elephant conflict. They also help fund other vital work around the world.
An optional soft toy to love forever. Toy may vary from image shown.
Choose between our standard welcome pack or a pack created for children under 12.
We'll keep you updated on how you're supporting our vital work including sending your adoption updates three times a year.
Together with fellow Community Champions, visit Ghana with AfriKids and see the impact of your support first hand.

We’re helping protect habitats and improve connections between fragmented areas where elephants live. We're working with governments and local communities to reduce conflict between people and elephants. And we’re influencing policy and legislation to benefit elephant conservation.
We're working with TRAFFIC, the wildlife trade monitoring network, to help train law enforcement agencies and lobby governments to improve laws on wildlife crime, including the illegal elephant trade.
