African elephants in Tsavo East National Park, Kenya Oct 5, 2024

Step into the world of the African elephants, the largest land mammals, celebrated for their extraordinary intelligence. Through gentle nudging, vocalisations and demonstrations, elephant mothers pass down vital knowledge that helps their young survive in the wild. Sadly, these precious animals face significant threats from habitat loss and poaching. As we admire these majestic creatures and strive to protect them, we can learn valuable lessons about empathy, cooperation and the importance of community.
