Prepare to be amazed as we dive into the incredible world where honeybees and conservation unite to create a harmonious coexistence between humans and elephants. Our team at Elephant Cooperation recently had the opportunity to visit the Save the Elephants “Elephants and Bees Research Center.” While there we learned more about a unique connection that has emerged between honeybees and conservation efforts aimed at mitigating human-elephant-conflict. The interplay between honeybees and elephants reveals fascinating insights into the natural world and offers sustainable solutions for both humans and wildlife.

Today is World Food Day! Our partners at COMACO are committed to helping small-scale farmers restore their land with conservation friendly farming practices that help to restore soil health and boost production. Revenues from their brand “It’s Wild!” are recycled back into the community to reward local compliance with these farming practices. As food and income security improve, families become organized into cooperatives and learn a broader range of livelihood skills that reinforce their commitment to conservation. We are proud to support an organization committed to sustainability practices that support not only the people of Africa but also the wildlife.

From June 27th to July 31st a translocation of 263 elephants was undertaken by Malawi’s Department of National Parks and Wildlife (DNPW), African Parks, the International Fund for Animal Welfare, and Conservation Solutions. As the lead donor, Elephant Cooperation was able to take part in the translocation. The elephants, along with 432 additional wildlife, were moved from Liwonde National Park to Kasungu National Park. While the animals were becoming crowded in their former park, they will now have ample space for continued population growth in their new home, which is four times larger! Initiatives like this translocation are a huge and rewarding process. Conservation efforts like this have become the backbone of saving African elephants. We hope that through this translocation we reduce elephant-human conflict and improve the quality of life on both sides. Ultimately furthering our overall goal of harmonious cohabitation between humans and African elephants.

Global Conservation Force (GCF), based in Oceanside, California, is stepping up to make an impact in conservation worldwide. This non-profit is committed to training wildlife rangers and supplying the equipment they need to make the biggest impact in many communities all over the world. The ivory and bushmeat trade has fueled the number of poachers encroaching on wildlife areas. Elephant Cooperation has teamed up with GCF to help fund their ranger training boots camps in South Africa’s Eastern Cape, Kwaszulu Natal, and the South African/Botswana border. During these boot camps, rangers are taught valuable skills in courses such as Trauma and Care Under Fire, Advanced Tracking Formations and Arrest Procedures, K9 Integration for Tracking Options, and Advanced Weapons Handling and Drills. These courses are essential to prepare rangers for their dangerous duties out in the bush. We hope that by educating and equipping these rangers they will be able to protect many at-risk species in the wild such as elephants, giraffes, pangolins, lions, cheetahs, and other smaller animals in the bushmeat trade.

Game Rangers International (GRI), located in Zambia, works to rescue and rehabilitate orphaned and injured elephants as part of their Elephant Orphanage Project. Rescued elephants are transported to the Elephant Nursery in Lusaka - where they receive food, water, and medical attention. The elephants also receive love and attention from their keepers and get introduced to their new herd. Once these elephants are ready, they will transfer to a release facility in Kafue National Park. The release facility allows the elephants to come and go as they please, which will help them become independent to one day return to the wild.

In August 2021, Elephant Cooperation partnered with Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) to alleviate Human-Elephant Conflict (HEC) by translocating five elephants. A mother, her two children, and two young bulls were causing conflict in communities around Meru County, Kenya. When elephants venture into human settlements in search of water and food, they can do extensive damage. There is an urgent need to diffuse the looming HEC threats for the sake of both the communities and the wildlife to achieve a win-won for all. Following increased cases of HEC, various Human Wildlife Conflict tools were deployed. In response to the urgent request, Elephant Cooperation donated funds to KWS to conduct the relocation. In the translocation process, certified doctors working with a dispatch unit of almost 50 people helped with the translocation and transported them to a suitable and safe habitat far away from the communities.
