Elephants Collared As Fears Over Human-Elephant Conflict Grow

TAITA-TAVETA, KENYA - FEBRUARY 02: A ranger from the Kenya Wildlife Service calls for help after Salama, a female African Savannah elephant, needed to be pushed on her side after being tranquilized during an elephant collaring operation on February 2, 2018 in an area of ranches in Taita-Taveta County, Kenya. The operation run by the Kenya Wildlife Service, Save the Elephants, and the Tsavo Trust fitted 20 elephants with satellite radio collars that provide insight into elephant movement and space needs in the area. Nine out of 20 elephants collared had spear or arrow wounds, raising fears of human-elephant conflict in the region which has seen a large growth in infrastructure and human population.
