Description
Summary:	From the depths of the African bush comes a heartwarming tale of survival and a scientific journey. . . the story of a huge herd of elephants condemned to death by a government decree. Today there are more than 350 elephants in South Africa's Addo Elephant National Park - descendants of the handful that not only survived the massacre of 1918 but also the guns of the ivory-traders. Filmed on location for four years, Addo's Elephants is an endearing and dramatic documentary exploring the evolution and growth of this inbred elephant society - a unique society providing scientists with an unprecedented genetic research laboratory!
