This is the best summary I could come up with:

The climate crisis is pushing elephants on a forced migration across borders in southern Africa in search of water, creating problems for national parks and conservation efforts.

“The carcass ratio suggests a high level of mortality which warrants further investigation as a potential warning sign for the health and stability of the elephant population,” the report stated.

This has been putting pressure on biodiversity and leading to clashes with local people as the animals breach human habitats in search of water.

“Elephants know no boundaries – they are moving in search of water and food,” said Tinashe Farawo, spokesman for the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority (Zimparks).

Farawo added that buffaloes and “all types of animals present in the Hwange national park” were also leaving in large numbers.

In a bid to ease overpopulation in Hwange, authorities last year planned the transportation of elephants to other areas, such as Gonarezhou in south-east Zimbabwe, near the border with Mozambique.

Elephants deserve the water more. They were there first and they aren’t destroying the world.

Pretty sure it’s not poor people living in poor African countries that are destroying the world either.

They’re doing things like slash and burn agriculture, with monoculture crops, so they’re sure helping.

It seems like easy talk to imply people in Africa can just go die of thirst as you think their water now belongs to the elephants, all from the comfort of your chair thousands of kilometers away while your country is contributing a thousand times more to the destruction of the world than they ever will. And I can state this with fair certainty as pretty much every country in the world is doing worse. What was even the point of your comment? How about you give them your water as they deserve it more?

Ok, they can have my water. How do you propose I get it to them?

How about you travel there and bring whatever you have?

Or maybe just start by reflecting why you even felt the need to state your original comment and think ‘yeah this is a nice and productive thing to say, that will help for sure’.

So, like, one bottle of water? That’s all they allow you to take on a plane. I guess I could put a few more in a suitcase. I doubt that would be very helpful.

Like Africa is the one place humans evolved right alongside these creatures.
