Healthy forests can be sustainably productive. Through non-linear harvesting and controlled hunting, forests can provide abundance, and intact national parks can become a major tourism asset, providing long-term income to nearby communities.#InternationalForestDay

Our new research shows how humans impact older and younger elephants differently, and how that affects when #elephant populations grow or decline. The work compiles two decades of data from following known individuals in Samburu #Kenya. Open access link: esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

#TheElephantEthogram describes over 500 behaviors - this is an example of a Nasal-Throb: a throbbing or fluttering movement in the forehead of an elephant at the position where the nasal passages enter the skull which occurs when air is pulsating through the nasal passages.

Counting #elephants can be hard! With >100 elephants at #DzangaBai some nights, counting can get pretty chaotic as the elephants move about, negotiating over pits and trying to keep track of family members. Here’s a thermal camera time-lapse of just 10 minutes at this busy bai!

Much like humans, elephants continue to display some of the same behaviors they learned & enjoyed during childhood well into adulthood! Watch below as two calves enjoy playing around with their resourceful noodles & two grown elephants do the same #elephants #babyanimal #trunking
