About this event
Join us for a special screening and discussion of A Life Among Elephants!
In the 1960s, the world knew little about wild African elephants — until Scottish biologist and Save the Elephants founder, Iain Douglas-Hamilton, arrived in Tanzania. His groundbreaking research in Manyara was the first in-depth study of wild African elephant behavior. Alongside his wife, Oria, and daughters, Saba and Dudu, Iain immersed himself in the lives of elephants, discovering their personalities and intricate family bonds.
The documentary features never-before-seen archival footage and intimate interviews with Douglas-Hamilton’s family and renowned figures like Jane Goodall.
After the screening, join us for a Q & A with Frank Pope, CEO of Save the Elephants and Saba Douglas-Hamilton, Conservationist and daughter of Save the Elephants Founder Dr. Iain Douglas-Hamilton.
