Description
"Giants of the Monsoon Forest offers a new perspective on animal intelligence and reveals an unexpected relationship between evolution in the natural world and political struggles in the human one. Shell examines why the complex tradition of working with elephants has endured with Asian elephants, but not with their counterparts in Africa. And he shows us how Asia's secret forest culture might offer a way to save the elephants. By performing rescues after major floods-as they did in the wake of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami-and helping sustainably log Asian forests, humans and elephants working together can help protect the fragile spaces they both need to survive."--Amazon.com.
