Photo from Facebook page of Elephant Conservation CenterLaos was once called the "land of a million elephants' but today elephant population has been reduced to several hundreds because of poaching and illegal ivory trade.
Picha kutoka ukurasa wa Facebook wa Kituo cha Kuhifadhi Tembo cha Laos wakati mmoja iliitwa "nchi ya tembo milioni moja' lakini leo tembo wamepunguzwa kuwa mamia kadhaa kwa sababu ya uwindaji haramu na biashara haramu ya pembe za tembo.
