The beautiful forest elephants are the largest res The beautiful forest elephants are the largest residents of our forests in the Congo Basin. They are the world’s smallest elephant (bulls seldom weigh more than 3 tonnes), extremely elusive and, as a result, poorly understood. Most of our knowledge comes from research through their larger cousins, the savannah elephant, although many scientists are now dedicating time and research to the behaviour of forest elephants specifically.⁣
⁣
Sadly, as of March 2021 the forest elephant is officially listed as ‘Critically Endangered’ by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Whilst this is devastating news, there is also hope that the classification, combined with research, will lead to a stability in forest elephant populations across Central Africa and the awareness raised will galvanise those who can help to do exactly that.⁣

There’s nothing we love more than happy guests i There’s nothing we love more than happy guests in the rainforest – and this was a very happy group! They were a photographic group who spent some time at Ngaga and Mboko as well as Sangha Lodge and were led by intrepid private guide James Kydd. There was walking, gorilla tracking, sundowners, canoeing, drives, epic sightings and plenty of laughs along the way. 

Thanks so much for your sharing your images James and we look forward to seeing you again soon!
