Quick Glance: Dispute over Hunting Trophies: Botswana Offers Germany 20,000 Elephants

In reaction to a proposed EU regulation on hunting trophies of protected species, Botswana's President offers Germany 20,000 elephants.

Botswana, hosting the largest elephant population in Africa, faces concerns of overpopulation. A hunting ban was lifted, and now 20,000 elephants are planned to be sent to Germany.

The President emphasizes the necessity of regulating the elephant population through hunting and insists they should live in the wild in Germany.

Botswana, recognized as a model democracy, invites the German minister to assess wildlife conservation firsthand. The logistical challenge of transporting 20,000 elephants over 8,000 kilometers is discussed.

Quick Glance: White House Responds to 'Dishonest' Republican Criticism of Biden's Transgender Proclamation on Easter

The White House is pushing back against misleading criticism from top Republicans of President Joe Biden for issuing a proclamation in support of transgender people on Easter.

A spokesman for the president rejected attacks from the House speaker and others claiming Biden's message for the Transgender Day of Visibility contradicts Christianity.

Biden has issued a proclamation marking March 31 as the Transgender Day of Visibility every year since taking office in 2021.

Biden allies are also challenging the attacks and highlighting that the criticism this Easter weekend also involves an egg art contest for the annual Easter Egg Roll at the White House.
