#18 Steve Koyle - Elephant Care Unchained
Today I spoke with Steve Koyle, founder of Elephant Care Unchained. It is a nonprofit that is dedicated to eliminating cruelty and improving elephant welfare in their native countries. Steve is one of the most selfless and kind people I have ever met so please go support him but donating and learning more about his work on his website, linked below!
In the episode we talk about Steve’s journey to becoming a voice for elephants. Elephants are kind, passive animals that have dealt with the human population. There is less and less land for them to be free so we have to make an effort to treat them well where they are welcomed. Whatever you can do to help will be greatly appreciated! Also, check out his YouTube page, it’s so interesting seeing elephant’s nails being cut.
