News in about a gruesome discovery in the Tsavo game reserve in Kenya.
Eleven adult elephants and one infant calf were brutally slaughtered by poachers to feed the demand for ivory in Asian countries.
"It is unimaginable, a heinous, heinous crime," said Paul Udoto, spokesman for the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS). "We have not seen such an incident in recent memory, it's the worst single loss that we have on record, and our records go back almost 30 years."
The elephant family was gunned down with automatic rifles before their tusks were hacked out with machetes, while the calf is believed to have been crushed by its mother as she fell after being shot.
Big Heart Bingo supports WWF and Traffic as they battle to get the trade in ivory banned.
