In South Africa, Namibia and Zimbabwe, it's still legal for tourists to hunt down and kill these gentle giants for sport. If you're a trophy hunter who is willing to pay.

Stop Trophy Hunting Giraffes

Dear Indra,

Tourists are paying as much as $3,800 to kill giraffes. In Africa, giraffe numbers are already plummeting and nearing extinction. Killing wildlife as a sport is not worth eliminating one of Africa's most iconic and rare species.

Tell the governments in Africa to stop these senseless animal killings.

As part of the thrill of giraffe hunting, these gentle and tall animals are tracked down, shot with high-powered guns, and then beheaded so that tourists can take a trophy home to hang on a wall. Add your voice to stop this inhumane practice.

We can save these wildlife creatures from trophy-hunting tourists. Ask the governments of Africa to protect these giraffes from being killed.
