Let Elephants Roam is an uplifting book about elephants in a time of deep concern, not only for these great, grey giants of the savanna but for the ecological health of nature and the whole planet.
Some 1.4 billion people live in Africa, which could nearly double by 2050. Increasing pressure on the continent's wildlife refuges and the diversity they harbour seems inevitable. This is the social, political and economic reality of Africa. Develop- ment of mega-infrastructure, agriculture, and mining consume wildlife habitat, fragment migratory pathways, and reduce access to food and water sources. This scenario sees elephants and other wildlife confined almost everywhere to 'islands' of protected areas in a sea of people and their activities.
