There's so much beauty in Africa, but it's not endless.

My grandmother said it very simply: "If you don't like dogs, you don't like humans, and vice versa." I really believe that.

I think there is a scientific approach to it and there is a political approach to it and an economical approach to it. All of this combined, we might find a solution.

In terms of security for wildlife and our society, it's an incredibly alarming situation, and we need to address that.

I think we all have a piece of wild in us that we want to protect. It was a very organic choice for me to support this organization [African Wildlife Foundation].

Many of the local institutions and politicians and veterinarians are involved in illegal trade. To crack that down, it's a big crime and big names to reveal.

If you have appreciation for life, whether it is a planet or any wild species, if it's a human or an elephant, death is really bad for all of us to adjust to. We are all going to die. When it happens in such a drastic, inhuman way, which we've been seeing in Africa, this is crime on its highest level.
