Publisher's Synopsis
Elephants are the gardeners of Africa. They spread seeds and create habitat. In fact, just a single elephant footprint, when filled with rain, can become a life-saving waterhole and a home for insects and other small animals.
But a secure future for elephants is still not guaranteed as they lose their own habitat and come into conflict with farmers.
- In this title, discover all the latest elephant research and learn how scientists are uncovering secrets about their behavior, their intelligence, their family lives, and their long-distance movements.
- The book features uplifting and positive stories about the ways in which the people who live alongside African elephants are working in partnership with scientists and conservation groups to share the land, protect farms, and make spaces for elephants.
Created with stunning photographs, this beautiful book is a must read for all elephant fans and is a fascinating insight into the world of wildlife conservation.
