از سال ۲۰۱۱ روز ۱۲ آگوست به عنوان روز جهانی فیلها انتخاب شده است. روزی که با حمایت آژانس های حفاظت حیات وحش به گسترش آگاهی، به اشتراک گذاری دانش و ارائه راه حل هایی برای مراقبت و مدیریت هرچه بهتر از هر دو گونه فیلهای وحشی و دستآموز اختصاص یافته است. فیل ها همچنان با چالش های بیشماری روبرو هستند ، از جمله شکارچیان، از بین رفتن زیستگاه، بهره برداری و سوءاستفاده، مجاورت با درگیریهای انسانی و فقر غذایی. در ادامه تصاویر منتخب نشریه آتلانتیک از فیل های آفریقایی و آسیایی در زیستگاه طبیعی و نیز در پارک های حافظت شده ببینید.

Naomi, a senior elephant keeper, sings to one of the older orphan calves at the Reteti Elephant Sanctuary in Namunyak Wildlife Conservancy, in central Kenya, on February 26, 2020. The community-owned elephant sanctuary gives care to abandoned or orphaned elephant calves and conditions them for release back to the wild as they approach four years of age. The sanctuary also benefits the local Samburu people who live alongside the animals and who are seen as an expanding community-driven grassroots conservation movement in northern Kenya. Each year, some five to ten elephants calves are rescued from a population of around 8,700. #
