After yet more death, this time at the HERD elephant facility in Hoedspruit, WAPFSA has appealed to the Honourable Minister George, to facilitate an independent and public review of the captive elephant industry in South Africa with the view to the phasing out of the elephant facilities that offer unnatural interactions with humans.
The Wildlife Animal Protection Forum of South Africa (WAPFSA) is a national network of twenty-eight South African environmental and conservation organizations established in 2017 with a particular emphasis on wild animal protection expertise.
