This is an amazing story about how Elephants returned to an area after over 20 years. Poaching, human-wildlife conflict and hunting drove them away. Through efforts by the Maasai Community in restoring the ecosystem and creating a conservancy, the Elephants returned.
They now have over 300 Elephants resident in the conservancy. The documentary comes along with a coffee table book with Augmented Reality. There is also a conservation angle towards this production, as proceeds from the sale of the documentary and the book will go towards the "Adopt an Acre" project being run by Selenkay Conservancy, whereby they require US$35 per acre annually to keep open spaces for Elephants and have them migrate between the conservancy and Amboseli National Park.
We are truly humbled and pleased to let you know that our documentary THE ELEPHANTS OF SELENKAY has been nominated in the Best Documentary (Feature) category for the Kalasha Awards 2022…
Exciting times ahead for ELEPHANTS OF SELENKAY. You can now watch the documentary on Tubi…

Thanks for sharing @Feisal Malik what a great trailer! It would be amazing if you could write a bit about the film in this post. Maybe a bit about the background? Be especially good for our members who are unable to access the video. Thank you! :)
Thank you Lize for your kind comments.

Thanks @Feisal Malik. This is absolutely incredible, what an amazing project. Is there a way for people to watch the film when it is released as its sounds fantastic! love that the proceeds are also feeding back into the project.
Hi Lize, we have a free screening in Nairobi next week - for those who are based in Nairobi. We are working on getting the documentary on some platforms. Will share details, fingers crossed

As we celebrate #worldelephantday, we celebrate a species that came back after over 20 years to where they once lived. We can restore habitats and live alongside these magnificent animals.
