Mama Tembo, a wise old female elephant, leads her herd from the scrub forest to the rain forest in search of salt licks. The elephants cross the vast, open savannah & meet an incredible variety of animals. Your students will learn about the highly intelligent & affectionate elephants, their fascinating method of communication & the many ways in which they use their trunks! They will also discover the sad plight of these gentle giants as herd populations continue to decline at the hands of unscrupulous poachers. The dynamic, complex relationship between an animal & its habitat is the focus of The Animals & Their Ecosystems Series.
