I’ve never been to Africa before, so stepping off of a tiny plane in the middle of the Okavango Delta absolutely astounded me. On the brief ride to the research camp…

Over the years, the elephant programme has sensibly and delicately reintroduced eight African elephants into the Okavango Delta

Could the rising temperatures of climate change be affecting elephants’ choice of habitat and possibly their daily movements?

Botswana government has realized that the fundamental key to effective wildlife conservation and management is long-term, science-based research, and thus has granted Elephants Without Borders (EWB) a research permit to study the population status and spatial ecology of large herbivores

Mthondo’s satellite signal had failed and the VHF component of his collar unit was transmitting intermittent signals, which means that the batteries in the unit were about to fail. So, there was an urgency to find him and replace his old collar.

Wetlands are important as they deliver significant ecosystem services, are cradles of biological diversity, and support populations of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish and invertebrates.
