Jim Justus Nyamu, aka Africa’s Elephant Man, keeps walking across America

DAY 16 OF 120 — LAS VEGAS

 

 

Today, I walked *19.1 miles* from the iconic *Welcome to Las Vegas Sign* to *Clark County Wetlands Park*.

What made this walk special was arriving in an area where I found *plants that are also found in Kenya*. For a moment, it felt like a small piece of home in the heart of Las Vegas.

*16 days, thousands of steps, one message:*

 

*Ivory belongs to elephants. ?*

 

 

 

I continue walking from Oakland to New York to create awareness, inspire action, and remind the world that elephants are worth far more alive than ivory.

 

*Walking for Giants.
