That number represents -- sorry, represented -- nearly 60 percent of Tanzania's elephant population. But over the past five years, more than 80,000 of the country's elephants have been slaughtered for their ivory in yet another sign humanity could soon drive the great pachyderms to extinction.
The startling new estimates were announced Monday by Tanzania's minister for natural resources and tourism, who said populations fell catastrophically from 109,051 in 2009 to 43,330 in 2014. The Guardian notes that with a 5 percent annual birth rate, the actual number of dead animals is 85,181.
