Photograph by David Chancellor @chancellordavid - so..if you’ve ever wondered what a sleeping bull elephant sounds like ? Turn up the volume and wonder no more ❤️❤️ - I’ve been working today with the extraordinary combined teams from @savetheelephants and @Lewa_wildlife @nrt_kenya here in northern Kenya. We’ve collared 3 cows, and 2 bulls right up in Biliqo Bulesa, it’s one of the largest conservancies with @nrt_kenya therefore nomadic pastoralists from several ethnic backgrounds converge across this vast and beautiful rangeland; this is one of my favourite places on the planet ?? It forms a vital corridor for wildlife from Samburu, Buffalo Springs, and Shaba National Reserves, and from Sera conservancy. By collaring these elephant we will more easily be able to see their routes of travel, predict possible areas of conflict, and mitigate them ahead of issues arising, and share vital data received from them in times of climatic change, such as drought. The collars will function without further intervention for 3/4 years supplying data continuously. The entire process took minutes due to the great skill of those working on this project, and Dr Mathew Mutinda, a Kenya Wildlife vet who I’ve had the incredible honour to work over the past years. He, without any shadow of exaggeration is singlehandedly responsible for saving more wildlife in this region than any other individual I’ve ever met, anywhere ! ???? - One fact - elephants can breathe through their mouths and trunk, however, during this procedure, whilst sleeping, the trunk end is held open with a small stick as limiting air through either air passage would cause discomfort. Once the elephant starts to wake, the stick is removed - The respiratory system of the elephant is quite exceptional and the success of this operation relies on the immense skill and speed of the teams here - A perfect day today for wildlife and those humans acting as custodians in these challenging times #nopoaching #elephant #conserving #conservation @nrt_kenya @lewa_wildlife @savetheelephants @kenyawildlifeservice @everydayextinction @ナショナルジオグラフィック @thephotosociety
