The International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW, www.ifaw.org) said an armed gang of Sudanese poachers killed free roaming elephants in the Bouba Ndjida National Park in northern Cameroon, near the border with Chad. Evidence of cuts taken from the tail or ear was observed on almost all the carcasses, even those of very young elephants. Cutting a small part of the ear is a habit from Sudan, not from Cameroon. It is considered as a trophy and worn as a pendant.", "Image Make": "NIKON CORPORATION", "Image Model": "NIKON D300S", "Image Orientation": "Horizontal (normal)", "Image SamplesPerPixel": "3", "Image XResolution": "300", "Image YResolution": "300", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Inch", "Image Software": "Adobe Photoshop CS5 Windows", "Image DateTime": "2012:05:01 12:44:37", "Image Artist": "Aziz Ndoumbe", "Image YCbCrCoefficients": "[299/1000, 587/1000, 57/500]", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Co-sited", "Image Copyright": "\u00a9 IFAW/A.
