Abstract

The article discusses concerns regarding the poaching of elephants in Central Africa to accommodate increasing demand for ivory in Asia, highlighting the work of American researcher Andrea Turkalo in the Central African Republic. Topics addressed include Turkalo's work as an elephant tracker at Dzanga-Ndoki National Park, a lack of enforcement of wildlife protection laws in Central Africa, and Turkalo's description of the social behavior of elephants.
