Yes, our honey-making insectoid foes! Use your worthy nemesishood to save these elephants from these barbaric warlords! Sting them!
In all seriousness, however they pulled this off, and partly due to my fear of bees and wasps, I approve. Elephants are not stupid, killing them for profit like these African warlords is cruel and said warlords don’t tend to care one bit about animals or people. Having something attack them that they can’t just shoot is going to be(e) a gamechanger.
I’m aware trophy hunting is a thing but I’m also aware they don’t just draw names from a hat. When African megafauna are chosen for trophy hunters, it’s almost always because they’re too aggressive to their other (endangered) peers to a lethal degree. Harvesting ivory enmasse to buy trafficked weapons is much, much more dark a shade of morality given they mostly tend to use the weapons on innocent people (usually impoverish natives) within Africa. Sadly, in Africa, being discriminated against for being dark-skinned does not seem to have always imparted the wisdom of “tolerance for everything but intolerance and causing harm”.
