Very little is known about the elephants of the Knysna Forest. It is difficult to study an animal that you cannot find; some even doubt their existence. Hunted almost to extinction by the early twentieth century, the last remaining members of the massive herds instinctively knew that they had to adapt in order to survive. But adaptation takes time, and time is running out.
