It's also easy to completely misunderstand why old and aggressive elephants are culled to allow more male elephants to breed and increase the population faster.

I didn't know that part, I was actually referring to the demand for ivory, which serves as an incentive for it to disappear… I guess what you said helps too🫡

*Not to disappear 🤦‍♂️ my mistake

The ivory demand does still lead to the continued poaching of African elephants.

In most cases, (and this one in particular) the elephant was being culled as part of the parks program to increase heard size safely.

It's an incentive to prevent the species from disappearing, if they are seen as private property, it complements what you said before to preserve them
