Photograph by David Chancellor @chancellordavid - relocating elephants from Lewa/Borana landscape northern Kenya, to Tsavo - these are persistent offenders, breaking fences and raiding adjoining farms. This translocation is designed to relocate specific elephants, in this case 9 in total, to areas less prevalent to occurrences of conflict. This is by no means perfect, however, it’s a compromise given the alternative would almost certainly be retaliatory attacks from those subject to the elephants raids. What’s interesting here is the shear number of people who given the opportunity; and in this case as the transfer from truck to trailer happened outside of the conservancies this was available to the general public, who turn out to simply see the wildlife that they often live alongside, rarely see, and generally derive little benefit from. We have to allow those who share their lands to not only share in the benefits derived from them, but also understand and appreciate the issues surrounding their very presence on these lands. Big shout out here to all involved in this complex operation, particularly @kenyawildlifeservice @lewa_wildlife @boranaconservancy @savetheelephants without whose support and expertise this wouldn’t have been possible. Not ideal, but given the inevitable alternative a good result for these elephants currently - I’ll keep up to date on how they settle in at Tsavo follow me here @chancellordavid @ナショナルジオグラフィック @thephotosociety and @everydayextinction #withbutterfliesandwarriors #conserving #conservation #elephant #africa #kenya
