In case you were wondering, August 12th is World Elephant Day! Elephants are the planet?s largest living land mammals; they symbolize strength, wisdom and intelligence. Sadly, the threat to elephants from ivory poachers is greater than ever with an estimated 38,000 African elephants killed annually – a rate that left unchallenged would see elephants wiped out by 2025! This season, Chantecaille presents the L’Éléphant Palette, and to help save this ancient species from extinction. Chantecaille has printed a QR code on the back of each palette?s box, and by scanning the QR code with a smart phone?s QR scanner app, you’ll be directed to the screen seen below which will provide a link to foster an orphan elephant. On the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust?s interactive site, you can choose an orphan based on their origin and age. As a David Sheldrick Wildlife foster parent, you will receive a fostering certificate that includes a detailed profile and photograph of your adopted orphan. You will also be granted access to your baby elephant?s ?Keeper?s Diary? filled with daily calendar entries and monthly photos. Along with the update you will be sent a collectable, monthly watercolor of your adopted elephant hand painted by the The post Chantecaille Contributes to Saving African Elephants appeared first on Hello Miss Niki.
