Elephants

Season 1 Episode 1 of 3

Documentary following a thousand elephants as they come together in a crucial gathering in northern Kenya, while facing threats from both predators and poachers. Liz Bonnin and a team of scientists and filmmakers use cutting-edge tracking technology to follow individual elephants as they cope with daily challenges and make the most of this unique, short-lived gathering. They also capture surprising new behaviour and witness how the elephant society responds to poaching, including the way in which young elephants cope with the loss of their parents

Nature's Epic Journeys airs on BBC Two England at 4:15 PM, Friday 11 April. (Subtitles, repeat, audio description.)
