The Elephant Whisperer
Overview & Summary
Conservationist Lawrence Anthony recounts how he took in a herd of traumatized, dangerously unpredictable wild elephants that no other reserve would accept, and gradually built trust with the animals through patience and a near-instinctive understanding of elephant behavior, ultimately becoming a figure the herd itself would seek out. Anthony's memoir is a moving account of interspecies connection and African wildlife conservation.
