Meet Wildlife Warrior, STE’s own David Daballen and Samburu’s most prominent elephant family in ‘The Royal Elephants of Samburu’ which premiers in Kenya this Sunday! Here's a sneak peek of the episode which airs at 5 pm EAT on Citizen TV Kenya.

Basel Zoo. Switzerland: You gotta be kidding me…

A ‘remarkable’ new study by the University of Oxford and STE has revealed that elephant herds do not slow down for mothers who've just given birth and miraculously, their offspring are able to keep up with the herd straight after they’re born! bit.ly/36uOBVl 📷 Robbie Labanowski

🐘 ELEPHANT RESEARCH 🐘 Experts from Oxford and Save the Elephants have found elephant herds don't need to reduce their pace for new mothers and their calves. GPS data shows they can keep up with the herd right after birth. More info ⬇️

New research suggests that elephants, like humans, vary their diets in relation to how they are feeling and what is going on in their lives. Read more about this remarkable story here: bit.ly/3NMOW7e #research #elephants #science
