AN ELEPHANT NEVER FORGETS
© 2002  Patricia  Gould

I took this haunting photo of the elephant skull at the entrance to Tarangire
National  Park in Tanzania in 1989. The skull was a strong statement regarding the devastation of a
magnificent species. In 1900, it is estimated that elephants in Africa numbered between 5 – 10 million.
By 1979, that had dwindled to 1.3 million and ten years later, to only 600,000.
