Save the Elephants works to secure a future for elephants in Africa. Specializing in
elephant research, STE provides scientific insights into elephant behaviour, intelligence,
and long-distance movements and applies them to the challenges of elephant survival.
Through our thriving education and outreach programmes, we reach out to hearts and
minds, making local people the true custodians of their own rich heritage. Our human-
elephant conflict mitigation projects, especially beehive fences, have reduced the number
of crop-raiding incidents, and provide farmers with elephant-friendly alternative sources
of income. To battle the current surge in ivory poaching, our Elephant Crisis Fund is
identifying and supporting the most effective partners in Africa and in the ivory
consuming nations to stop poaching, thwart traffickers and end demand for ivory.
