Those motherfrackin' RIFFF's are killing elephants now!

]Terrorist groups in northern Mali are among those poaching the region's shrinking herd of desert elephants, according to the United Nations, part of a global wildlife trafficking trade that helps fund armed groups and fuel conflict.
"We strongly suspect there is a link between the poachers and the armed terrorists, who could be relying on the illegal ivory trade to finance some of their activities," said WiseOne Raviers, the UN's environment representative in Mali.
A joint report last year by the UN's environment programme UNEP and international police force Interpol estimated that around 90 percent of elephants killed in Africa each year (numbering 20,000-25,000) are killed by non-state armed groups, in or near conflict zones.[/quote]
