This essay highlights the importance of long-term studies on long-lived intelligent animals such as elephants. Have a listen or read about this elephantine soap opera not unlike our own family and community dramas, particularly when times are tough.

Check out this brief interview explaining why male elephants use rumbles to coordinate action. There is a sneak preview of one of our patient mentors letting the younger males hang on him and greet him. Adorable! https://t.co/7AyG177fjO
I just learned that A Mighty Girl featured me for World Elephant Day! Nice write up! Here’s to all the other Mighty Elephant ladies out there! https://t.co/ouwXTOU1qE
@lilou82@Captaindjidji@ActesSud The goal was to reach a broader audience with a popular science version of my research—hopefully as easy to read as fiction:)
J'ai découvert il y a peu la collection Mondes Sauvages chez @ActesSud .
Très emballé par Le parrain, au coeur d'un clan d'éléphants, de @ElephantSkinny (Caitlin O'Connell).
Fabuleux voyage en Namibie, à la rencontre des éléphants.
J'adore le titre du 5e chapitre 😋
Caitlin O'Connell studies insects and African elephants, both of which communicate by transmitting infrasound signals. Researching these animals may help improve hearing aids in the future!
