Protecting the Big Tuskers of Tanzania

Chem Chem Foundation manages one of the last sanctuaries for big elephant tuskers in Africa. Elephant IDs help in the monitoring of the movement of these old bulls in the greater Tarangire eco-system, an area renowned for its elephant population. Valuable data is captured and used to assess the elephant traffic and the routes that are used by the tuskers. This information is invaluable for the anti-poaching units.
