Elephants & Bees and over 6912 comments
Hello my dear Steemians,
This is the new account “Planetwild” by @stef1 and @myskye. This account is about collecting Steem for the PlanetWild project. That's why I'm going to post once a day. Everything we get together here (Steem, SBD, SP) goes to the project. Then let's see what we can do here...
The elephant population in Tanzania has declined drastically since the 1970s. Anti-poaching laws have led to a slight recovery, but another major problem persists. In search of new agricultural land, Tanzania’s farms are expanding into the habitat of elephants and their migration routes. This leads to elephant-human conflicts over land use, potentially resulting in casualties on both sides.
We’re partnering with Wild Survivors to safeguard the endangered African Savanna elephant, the largest animal walking the face of the earth. Their mission is to protect elephants and the livelihoods of locals in the Ngorongoro region. To do that, they’re using a genius solution based on one simple fact: Elephants are scared of bees.
They promised to install one extra beehive along there elephant corridor for every 500 comments received on our video.
They got 6912 buzzing comments, and as a result, they’ll be sponsoring 14 additional hives! These hives will serve as gentle guides, helping to steer elephants away from human fields.
Thank you, friend!
