ABIONA: And good morning to you too, Tuku.
[trumpeting]
‐ Yes, hello, Tumaini.
[trumpets, rumbles]
ABIONA: [laughing] Yes, I know. You're the loudest.
[roars]
[all laughing]
‐ And thank you all for joining us today.
My name is Dr. Abiona Maina,
and I’m the executive director here at the Tembo Sanctuary,
which is home to the last two African elephants on Earth.
[elephant trumpets, rumbles]
ABIONA: Beautiful, aren’t they?
My family founded the Tembo Sanctuary in 2020
to provide a safe refuge for Africa’s shrinking elephant population.
At the time, elephant numbers had dropped below 400,000 individual members.
Twenty years later...
[trumpeting]
Just two of these majestic creatures are left.
Fortunately, we have a male, Tumaini,
and a female, Tuku, so we’re hopeful that...
[roaring]
Oh, they don’t like it when I talk about our breeding program.
Shall we see where they're going?
[engine starting]
[trumpeting]
‐ What's she doing?
‐ She’s feeling the truck’s engine vibrate.
Elephants can hear through their feet.
They can sense and communicate through soundwaves
that travel through the ground rather than the air.
Soundwaves that are undetectable to us.
[voice fast‐forwarding]
Right now, Tuku is using her trunk to show Tumaini affection and acceptance,
but they also use their trunk to sooth and comfort one another,
particularly when they’re angry.
‐ Anything? MR. LEOPOLD: Uh, her name is Tuku.
She can feel vibrations through her feet,
and, uh, elephants comfort each other with their trunks apparently.
[trumpeting, roaring]
‐ That’s not the only thing they use their trunks for.
[roaring]
‐ Julia, why don’t you go check on our other, uh, guest.
See if you can find something that Tuku could eat?
Johnny, come on. We gotta get her in the barn.
ABIONA [on tablet]: Elephants help each other in distress,
grieve for their dead, and they’re empathetic,
meaning they share each other's feelings.
Just like us.
