Author and explorer Levison Wood embarks on a new expedition: an epic 650-mile journey on foot, following the world’s largest elephant migration. Lev fulfils a life-long ambition to get as close to these magnificent creatures as possible, and gains powerful insight into this still mysterious journey – one that the elephants have done for millennia, but no person has yet done on foot. Lev witnesses elephants under increasing threat from both natural and man-made dangers. Along the way, he also meets with locals and gets their uncensored view of whether humans and elephants can ever live in harmony. While millions of elephants once roamed across Africa, that number is now dwindling, and by 2040 these iconic creatures could all be gone. WALKING WITH ELEPHANTS reveals a deeper understanding of the elephants' remarkable lives, and timely insight into how we may secure their future.
