Today, most African forest elephants' homes are in Gabon, an African country. People in Gabon are now working to help the elephants. How? There are a few ways. The government plans to limit(限制）the number of trees people can cut down. This would protect the elephants' homes, Workers are also building fences（围栏)around the country's national parks. That will prevent the elephants from going to nearby farms - where they might get killed by the farmers. Leaders in Gabon are also supporting tourism.

The second picture had mountains, too. But few trees could be seen. Above them was a dark, angry sky. A heavy rainstorm was happening. Down the side of the mountain ran a powerful waterfall. It did not look peaceful at all. However, the king felt it was special. At midnight, the king looked carefully at the second picture again.
