Know the reason behind Botswana President's threat to send 20 thousand elephants to Germany?

Botswana threatened Germany The President of the African country Botswana has angrily threatened to send 20,000 elephants to Germany. A suggestion from the German Environment Ministry is responsible for this resentment. It said that German citizens hunt animals in other countries. Then their remains are brought as trophies, which we must put a stop to immediately.

Responding to this, Botswana President Mokgweetsi Masisi has said, 'If Germany imposes such a ban, the people of my country will become poorer. Due to the efforts made for the conservation of elephants in our country, the elephant population in the country is increasing rapidly. A large number of tourists from Germany are allowed to hunt elephants. This helps in controlling the elephant population. Apart from this, Botswana also earns huge income. German tourists are also allowed to take elephant tusks and other goods from Botswana.'

Apart from this, Masi has also said, 'German people should live with elephants in their country. Germany advises us not to allow poaching of elephants but this is no joke. Herds of elephants in Botswana are damaging people's agriculture and other property. Killing the local people. We will send 20,000 elephants to Germany and then see how the German people live with them.

Earlier, Botswana had threatened to send 10,000 elephants to Hyde Park to Britain. One third of the world's elephant population is in Botswana. The number of elephants here is more than 1.30 lakh and the government claims that this population is much higher considering the size of the country. Earlier, Botswana had also gifted 8000 elephants to neighboring country Angola to reduce the population. Botswana has made a similar offer to Mozambique.
