À propos de cet audio

"Vividly written... Their story is thrilling - the kind of tale that wild-animal lovers won't easily forget." (People)

In this riveting real-life adventure, Mark and Delia Owens tell the dramatic story of their last years in Africa, fighting to save elephants, villagers, and - in the end - themselves. The award-winning zoologists and pioneering conservationists describe their work in the remote and ruggedly beautiful Luangwa Valley, in northeastern Zambia. There they studied the mysteries of the elephant population’s recovery after poaching, discovering remarkable similarities between humans and elephants. A young elephant named Gift provided the clue to help them crack the animals’ secret of survival. A stirring portrait of life in Africa, Secrets of the Savanna is a remarkable record of the Owenses's unique passions.

I enjoyed learning about Delia and Mark's conservation work in Zambia. The description made you feel as though you could be there too. It was heartbreaking to hear how their work ended and finding a new home after living in the African wilderness for decades. I can't help but wonder how Gift the elephant is doing today.

A great book on conservation work in Africa
