Across Africa, elephants display remarkable intelligence, emotion, and strong social bonds while shaping ecosystems as they disperse seeds and transform landscapes. Yet poaching, habitat loss, and climate change threaten their survival. Drawing on firsthand observations across multiple African countries, John David Ulferts explores elephant behavior and highlights research by Iain Douglas-Hamilton, Cynthia Moss, and Joyce Poole on communication, social life, parenting, and physical traits, revealing the extraordinary lives of these gentle giants.
