Naledi tells the incredible story of a baby elephant born into a rescue camp in the wilderness of Botswana. When she’s suddenly orphaned at one month old, it’s up to the keepers who look after the herd to keep her alive. Camp scientist Mike Chase has launched the most ambitious ever census of African elephants: a last ditch effort to ensure their survival. He is racing to defend a species while struggling to save a single life.

Sand dunes a 1,000 feet high, shimmering mirages and scorching temperatures – these are the deserts of northern Namibia. A remarkable diversity of life can be found in the sand rivers that dissect the desert dunes. Elephants, giraffes, lions and baboons defy this inhospitable place, but all the desert life in Namibia is dependent on the rain. In some years it never arrives – and every creature of the sand rivers awaits its fate.
The dunes of the Namib Desert, the oldest on earth, extend inland for some sixty miles and stretch for three hundred miles along the South West African coastline. In this hostile landscape, a community of animals evolved which can live in its constantly shifting sands. Survival in such an uncompromising environment has intrigued scientists for years.

Of all the countries of Africa there is one that wears a crown for wildlife: Namibia. But now properties and industries are slowly swallowing the land where Namibia’s wild animals roam. Poaching is also on the rise. With the threats comes hope: Namibian government experts, biologists and scientists have joined forces to develop simple, innovative strategies to stop the tide of destruction. Black rhinos, African elephants and cheetahs play major roles in this endeavour.
