🌟 Calling all animal lovers! Let’s ignite our Monday with a burst of compassion and kindness. “Animal lovers are a special breed of humans, generous of spirit, full of empathy, perhaps a little too prone to sentimentality, and with hearts as big as a cloudless sky.” 💖✨ Let’s wear our hearts on our sleeves and spread love for our furry, feathery, and scaly friends. Tag a fellow animal lover and let’s make today a day filled with boundless love and empathy! 🌈🐾 . . . #vfae #motivationmonday #monday #motivation #inspiration #elephant #animalhopeandwellness #animalhelp #asianelephant #asianelephantprojects #elephantlover #elephantswithoutborders #elephantlove #vfaes_mondaymotivation #MondayMotivation #AnimalLoversUnite #SpreadCompassion

🌟 Let’s kick off our week with a tribute to a true inspiration: Mark Shand. 🐘✨ As a British traveler and elephant conservationist, his love for India, especially Assam, knew no bounds. Shand’s impactful work, including his bestselling book «My Elephant» and his role as chairman of the Elephant Family charity, has left an indelible mark on the world of conservation. 🍃📖 He passed away in April 2014, but his legacy continues to inspire us to protect and cherish our planet’s majestic creatures. Let’s honor his memory by continuing his mission of compassion and conservation. 🙏 . . . #vfae #motivationmonday #monday #motivation #inspiration #elephant #animalhopeandwellness #animalhelp #asianelephant #asianelephantprojects #elephantlover #elephantswithoutborders #elephantlove #vfaes_mondaymotivation #MondayMotivation #RememberingMarkShand

It's a thrill getting this close to a giant elephant but he was just interested in drinking water from camp supply. #elephant #elephants #savetheelephants #elephantswithoutborders #bbcwild #bbcwildlifemagazine #nationalgeographicwild #wildlife_perfection #wildlife_seekers #wildlife_inspired #wildlifephotography #stopivorytrade #stophunting #savetheelephants #siyafundawildlifeandconservation #siyafundawildlife #volunteerafrica #volunteersiyafunda #conservation #conservationphotography #conservationmatters #africanwildlife #wildafrica #wildlife #animalphotography

When science is ignored in favour of rhetoric and misinformation, it is more critical than ever to scrutinise how policy is shaped and who it prioritises. Biodiversity at large is increasingly threatened by overexploitation and unsustainable use. Greenwashing narratives of sustainability and conservation employing misinformation will only serve to harm KAZA’s critical elephant populations.  EWB’s recent technical report reviewing the 2022 survey across the KAZA region notes the elephant population appears to be relatively stable overall, however, the results for Zambia, Botswana and Angola show worrisome indications, including high carcass ratios, large declines, and evidence of recent poaching. Elephant numbers in Botswana have increased slightly by 1.3%, in contrast to the Botswana government’s claim of 7.6% growth per year. Crucially, numbers of elephants decreased by 25% in areas that were open to hunting and increased by 28% in areas where hunting is not allowed. The KAZA survey also recorded the highest fresh carcass ratio in Botswana, further contradicting claims of a population explosion and that there was no poaching. Conservation Action Trust’s Stephanie Klarmann explains (original article in Daily Maverick) photo: Kelly Landen, a herd surrounds a young elephant’s carcass, that appears to be a natural mortality https://www.conservationaction.co.za/the-numbers-dont-support-botswanas-threat-to-send-30000-elephants-to-europe/ #sciencematters #stoppoaching #truthseeker #elephantsurvey #kaza #elephantswithoutborders

Wildlife corridors are key conservation tools, whether they be large crossing the terrain of international boundaries -or- small, as the corridors EWB has identified within the townships and villages in Chobe district. Corridors allow wildlife to move between important habitat patches. These connectivity paths facilitate human wildlife coexistence, as they provide safe access to required resources (especially water) by reducing interactions between people and wildlife. Habitat fragmentation is a growing risk around the globe, making wildlife corridors ever more important! #coexist #lovenature #elephantswithoutborders #wildlifecorridors #safehabitat #protectwildlife

These poignant words by one of the greatest 19th century novelists in all of world literature ring true in a supposedly “highly advanced society”. 📚 #MondayMotivation 📌 Humans may have evolved mechanistically, technologically and materially, but seem to have failed to evolve consciously, as we continue to witness relentless cruelty being inflicted upon the voiceless nonhuman animals. Perhaps this may be time to learn from these “beasts” who seem to be a lot kinder and more evolved than humans.

❗🐘 VICTORY❗ BANGLADESH BANS ADOPTION OF WILD ELEPHANTS. 🐘 There are now only about 200 of the critically endangered elephants in Bangladesh, with about half of those living in captivity. — BBC 🐘 The country used to be one of the major homes for the Asian elephant but poaching and habitat loss has caused a marked decrease in their numbers. 🐘 Under the previous scheme, young elephants could be taken into captivity where the forestry department issued licenses to logging groups who would use the animals to haul logs. Others ended up in circus groups. Such exploitation broke the terms of the licenses, the court said. 📣 Track the developments here: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-68398675 👉 Help support GMFER’s work here: https://gmfer.org/donate/ #MarchAgainstExtinction #GMFER #SaveOurWildWorld #SaveAsianElephants #TransfrontierAfrica #MizuEcocare #RARESriLanka #Elephanatics #TwoMillionTusks #ElephantswithoutBorders #Traffic #USFWS #USDepartmentoftheInterior #ActionforElephantsUK Image credit: ©Pixabay.com/Pixel-mixer/Anrita1705/Republica

I’m proud to be co-author to this exciting and novel publication, based on the first research done on elephant sleep patterns in the wild. Previously, all the information known on elephants’ sleep was attained by observations of elephants in captivity. But, what about elephants in their wild, natural environment where they have to contend with survival skills and changing environmental conditions? So, we collaborated with researchers from the University of Witwatersrand and UCLA to find some answers. On adult, female, African elephants, we deployed GPS collars adding small gyroscopes and “actiwatch implants” — the equivalent of animal Fitbits — to monitor the elephants’ activity levels, discovering some really interesting observations: * the elephants slept on average for only TWO hours a day; apparently the least of any mammals! * most of their sleep was while standing (adults), but they lay down to sleep every third or fourth day; * there were nights when they didn’t sleep at all, and moved long distances of 10-30 km; * Elephants dream, but apparently they only dream every 3 to 4 days, when they sleep longer durations to reach REM sleep; * the time they went to sleep and woke coincided with conditions not related to sunrise or sunset, rather, both were strongly related to the “real feel” of the environment; a mix of temperature, humidity, wind speed and solar radiation. @plosjournals @womeninconservation #elephantsleep #elephantsdream #elephantresearch #elephantstudy #wildliferesearch #elephantswithoutborders #plosone #freeelephants #lovenature #scienceisreal

Sloths sleep for 14 hours a day, humans average 8 hours… but what about elephants? Previously, all the information known on elephants’ sleep was attained by observations of elephants in captivity, whereas elephants tend to sleep 5 to 6 hours every night. But, what about elephants in their wild, natural environment? In a unique and innovative study, EWB collaborated with researchers from the University of Witwatersrand and UCLA to answer questions on elephants sleep in the wild. On adult, female, African elephants in Chobe National Park, we deployed GPS collars adding small gyroscopes and “actiwatch implants” — the equivalent of animal Fitbits — to monitor the elephants’ activity levels, discovering some really interesting observations: * the elephants slept on average for only TWO hours a day; apparently the least of any mammals! * most of their sleep was while standing (adults), but they lay down to sleep every third or fourth day; * there were nights when they didn’t sleep at all, and moved long distances of 10-30 km; * Elephants dream, but apparently they only dream every 3 to 4 days, when they sleep longer durations to reach REM sleep; * the time they went to sleep and woke coincided with conditions not related to sunrise or sunset, rather, both were strongly related to the “real feel” of the environment; a mix of temperature, humidity, wind speed and solar radiation.

EWB Publication highlighted: What are the prospects of opening up corridors and improving connections between protected areas? Elephants need space, water, grass and trees as well as freedom from harassment. However, savanna Africa is no longer theirs. Because unsuitable areas for elephants surround their habitats, their movement is restricted by artificial barriers, such as roads or fences. Long-term population stability will be difficult without their dispersal. Reconnecting nature offers a solution. In cooperation with local communities and governments, protecting the connections for elephant dispersal may represent some of our best chances at a sustainable future for elephants. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0275791 @dailymaverick @plosone #sciencematters #elephantcorridors #elephantresearch #naturesolutions #sustainablefuture #satellitetelemetry #telemetry #saveelephants #ceru #conservationresearch #elephantswithoutborders #fieldwork
