"Exciting. . . part adventure story, part wildlife tale"--The Boston Globe

Intelligent, majestic, and loyal, with lifespans matching our own, elephants are among the greatest of the wonders gracing the African wilds. Yet, in the 1970s and 1980s, about a thousand of these captivating creatures were slaughtered in Zambia each year, killed for their valuable ivory tusks. When biologists Mark and Delia Owens, residing in Africa to study lions, found themselves in the middle of a poaching fray, they took the only side they morally could: that of the elephants.

The Eye of the Elephant recounts the Owens' struggle to save these innocent animals from decimation, a journey not only to supply the natives with ways of supporting their villages, but also to cultivate support around the globe for the protection of elephants. Filled with daring exploits among disgruntled hunters, arduous labor on the African plains, and vivid depictions of various wildlife, this remarkable tale is at once an adventure story, a travelogue, a preservationist call to action, and a fascinating examination of both human and animal nature.

Hydration and Firming in One Amazing Cream
Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Since I started using this Dove Pro-Retinol + Firming cream, I honestly noticed a difference in my skin. I love that it’s not heavy or greasy—it absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling super soft from the very first application. One thing that really surprised me is how well it keeps my skin hydrated for a long time, especially in areas where I usually feel dryness. With consistent use, my skin feels firmer and looks healthier and more cared for. I also like that it doesn’t irritate my skin (which is very important to me), and the scent is light and pleasant—not overpowering at all. This is definitely a product I would buy again, especially if you’re looking for deep hydration with an added firming benefit without spending too much.

Great moisturizer
Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is the most pleasant and effective moisturizer I’ve tried. It’s very smooth and creamy, and it soaks in quickly. Ends dry, itchy skin on my legs damaged by daily golfing in shorts.
