Tour for Tusks: Jacksonville, Florida

Wildlife SOS is the largest rescue and conservation agency for Asian elephants in the world. We began in 1995 as a small group dedicated to protecting India’s wildlife from exploitation and extinction. Today, we have expanded to the United States and the U.K. Following a successful sloth bear campaign which rescued over 600 sloth bears from the cruel 'dancing bear' practice, our eyes turned to captive elephants. We are currently running a campaign to save the remaining elephants in India. By supporting 'Toast for Tusks' you are helping hundreds of captive elephants one day find freedom in India which will ensure the poaching of wildlife is reduced and eventually eliminated.
