Providing conservation support in Tanzania Since 2013 we are establishing a long-term programme to monitor and study Ruahas elephants. So far we have identified 400 elephants and evaluated the current demographic trends under pressure of poaching including a rise in the proportion of tuskless matriarchs. We use camera-traps and trained field teams to observe elephants at natural springs and other areas where they are at bigger threat. By focusing our research on the effects and dynamics of poaching we aim to help the wardens and rangers of Ruaha NP to effectively protect this critical population and the wonderful Ruaha ecosystem.
