It is difficult to know how many elephants once lived in the continent, but there may have been at least 3-5 million elephants in Africa in the early part of the 20th century People have always hunted elephants for meat, hides and ivory As the human population grew and weapons became more advanced, elephants were under greater threat In the late 1970s and early 1980s, there was a huge decline in the number of elephants due to the increase in poaching It is estimated that there are now about 500,000 elephants and they are living in a small number of countries A ban was given on all international trade in ivory
