The African elephant is experiencing the worst crisis in history, with its number at its lowest level in history. The poaching crisis of African elephants began in 2010 and continues to this day. In 1981, there were 1 million 200 thousand elephants on the continent, less than 500 thousand now. The number of African elephants is declining every year, and some populations are directly threatened by regional extinction. Rampant poaching is rampant Ivory smuggling. Since 2009, illegal ivory trade has been at a high level and has been on a large scale. Data show that the current global trade in illegal ivory is three times as much as in 2007. 

非洲象正在经历历史上最严重的危机，其数量处于历史最低水平。 非洲大象的偷猎危机始于2010年，一直持续到今天。 1981年，非洲大陆有100万20万只大象，而现在不到50万。 非洲象的数量每年都在减少，一些人口直接受到区域灭绝的威胁。 猖po的盗猎行为是象牙走私活动的猖ramp。 自2009年以来，非法象牙贸易一直处于较高水平，并且规模很大。 数据显示，当前全球非法象牙贸易是2007年的三倍。
