Elephanatics is a Canadian-based non-profit dedicated to securing a future for African elephants through conservation • education • action.
Education & Community Engagement
At least 20,000 African elephants are illegally killed each year to fuel a $199 billion global black market. Through educational resources and outreach, we inform and engage the public about critical threats like ivory poaching, habitat loss, and human-elephant conflict—believing education is the key to change. Our work highlights the vital role elephants play as a keystone species, empowering communities to protect them.

UNTOC Advocacy Initiative
A Historic Victory for Wildlife! 🇨🇦🐘🌍
At UNTOC COP13 in Vienna, member states voted overwhelmingly to adopt Resolution L.4—officially launching negotiations for a legally binding UN Protocol against Environmental Crime.
Following a campaign led by Elephanatics and World Elephant Day – which mobilized advocates worldwide to contact Canadian decision-makers – Canada voted IN FAVOUR!
As global experts begin the 2-year treaty drafting process (2026–2028), Elephanatics will monitor negotiations, track progress, and share updates with our community.

“But perhaps the most important lesson I learned is that there are no walls between humans and the elephants except those we put up ourselves, and that until we allow not only elephants, but all living creatures their place in the sun, we can never be whole ourselves.”
― Lawrence Anthony, The Elephant Whisperer: My Life with the Herd in the African Wild
