An elephant is killed in Africa every 15 minutes. If this continues, these extraordinary animals will become extinct in less than three decades.
This magnificently produced book offers a passionate, graphic and moving picture of the African elephant today in over 250 astonishing colour images captured by Africa's most celebrated wildlife photographers. With texts contributed by leading scientists, conservationists, filmmakers and criminologists on the ground, the book covers the elephant populations of South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania, Kenya, Gabon, Congo, Central African Republic, Nigeria, Chad and Mali.
The book has been created to make the world aware of the devastating problem and as a tribute to those who risk their lives each day to stem the tide of poaching. The Last Elephants - is the title prophetic? We hope not.
