Fascinating example of harvest-induced evolutionary change... "tusklessness" providing female African Elephants 🐘a phenotype more likely to survive the despicable practice of poaching. #WorldElephantDay

Intense ivory poaching during the Mozambican Civil War resulted in the rapid evolution of tusklessness in female African elephants, a 2021 Science study found, resulting in a phenotype more likely to survive in the face of poaching. https://t.co/gTYheEHMxJ
Despite our destructive nature as humans, ultimately, nature will help us adapt and evolve to survive in the best possible way. Paper link here: https://t.co/61Yqqq8v5b
This is wild! A population of #AfricanElephants from @GorongosaPark is evolving to be tuskless… and this gene seems to be fatal in males as there are no tuskless males found in the park. Poachers and nature taking their toll on the African Elephants. https
Survival for the fittests? Read below how female elephants 🐘 have adapted to having no tusks to improve chances of survival in their habitats; all driven by poaching. Ivory poaching and the rapid evolution of tusklessness in African elephants https://t.
@Freedom4037 @ChiIwellian @rizuajq @freemonotheist Another example of evolution caused by humans changing the conditions of what is a "viable trait." https://t.co/eMvEQXVKkr
@AmyDickman4 @CWitvrouwen Don't know about the mane thing, but here's a link to a paper in Science , which connects poaching to rapid tusklessness in African elephants. Suddenly my twitter is filled with #trophyhunting chatter and mudslinging 😅 https://

7/ By sequencing the genome, the research team identified 2 genes that may be causing tuskless females and death in tuskless males: AMELX and MEP1a. In mammals, these genes code for the development of incisor teeth. https://t.co/d0F5h9BZcO https://t.co/U
6/ Mathematical modeling showed this change was because of natural selection, and not a random fluke. In the decades spanning the war, tuskless females had more than 5x greater odds of survival. https://t.co/d0F5h9BZcO https://t.co/L7B3MD2kUH
@MerGarza en los 🐘estar ligado a una fuerte presión selectiva, y cuando ya existía en la población esa variante, empieza a ser favorecida.https://t.co/J4Nd0VzLyx
