Parque Nacional da Gorongosa Moçambique

New National Geographic Television film about Gorongosa: "War Elephants"

Mar 14, 2012 - Washington DC

In Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park, elephants are in crisis: years of civil war and ivory poaching have left them frightened and hostile toward humans.

In a new National Geographic Television film, the world’s foremost elephant researcher Dr. Joyce Poole, in a documentary by her brother, cameraman Bob Poole, works to build trust and retrain the animals away from their violent behavior.
 
The screening will be followed by a discussion with the Gorongosa Park Administrator, Mateus Mutemba, the Pooles and NGTV Sr. Producer David Hamlin and is co-presented with the Environmental Film Festival in the USA Capital.
