The snowball effect

SU4E actions aim to protect elephants and their environment by involving the local community.  By protecting a "keystone" species such as the Asian Elephant, the entire community can be involved in the various stages of management and protection. Acting for the protection of an endangered species necessarily leads to an increased awareness and sensitivity among the locals, therefore improving the chances for the protection of their natural habitat and consequently the conservation of all the species living in the area, habitat, people included. The circle is closes and the protectionist impact is increased.
