I wonder just where that figure of 450 000comes from. I may be wrong, but I had been led to believe that the number was almost 3 times that.
Also "now found in only 5 percent of the continent".

As for spearing them. Those gents have a much larger set then I do.

Greenies always seem to like to under- or over- estimate numbers ...

I remember once seeing these numbers:

400,000 Tanzania
7.000 Kenya
80,000 Zimbabwe
50,000 Botswana
15,000 South Africa
+ Mozambique
+ Namibia
+ Zambia
+ other countries

Who knows?


Check out the Italian film "Africa Addios" on the net somewhere, which has scenes of elephant being brought down by spearing.
