Mongabay Podcast on Elephants

August 12, 2021 is World Elephant Day! Listen to this Mongabay podcast about elephants. The podcast discusses the new short film ‘Shaba’ telling the story of an orphaned elephant in Kenya and the indigenous Samburu people. And, I talk a bit about our recent research into forest elephants’ role as ecosystem engineers and their movements and how our findings can inform conservation measures.
