The African elephant is the biggest land animal on earth. With adult males weighing as much as seven tonnes, and with a height of well over two metres at the shoulder, the jumbo is no doubt an awesome sight. When watching the animals at close range, it is even more exciting. This is what Amboseli national park promises the visitor.
Situated on the Kenyan side at the foot of the world’s highest free standing mountain, Mt. Kilimanjaro, the park prides itself as the custodian of the most documented elephant herds on earth. Elephant researchers have been working here since the early 1970’s and they know virtually every elephant by name. Every new born is recorded, just like every death. The animals have tags that track their movements sometimes migrating to Tsavo national park over one hundred miles away.
