Lifting the ban on elephant trophies will probably help save elephants.

'When you considered the facts on the ground, lifting restrictions on elephant trophy bans isn’t necessarily a bad idea. '

'According to the Great Elephant Census, the African savanna’s elephant population across 18 countries went down 30 percent from 2007 to 2014. '

'The GEC numbers suggest the elephant population numbers for both Zimbabwe and Zambia are fairly stable. '

'In 2014, Zimbabwe’s elephant populations tallied up to more than 82,000—an incredibly far cry from the 4,000 individuals counted up around 1900. '

'But it’s important to note that elephant populations are not in the dire straits they once were. '
