The Amboseli Elephant Research Project is a long-term research project on the ethology of the African elephant, operated by the nonprofit . The project studies the elephant's social behavior, age structure and population dynamics. It is the longest running study of elephant behavior in the wild, and has gathered data on life histories and association patterns for more than 2,000 individual elephants. The subjects of the Amboseli Elephant Research Project, mostly notably the elephant matriarch Echo, have been described at length in documentaries on PBS and Animal Planet.

  • Das Amboseli Elephant Research Project ist ein Projekt der Non-Profit-Organisation . Es ist das detaillierteste und langfristigste Projekt zur Erforschung der Afrikanischen Elefanten. Ziel des Forschungsprojekts ist das Studium des Sozialverhaltens, der Altersstruktur und der Populationsdynamik Afrikanischer Elefanten. Das Forschungsprojekt wurde 1972 von Cynthia Moss und in dem im Süden Kenias liegenden Amboseli-Nationalpark initiiert. Der Amboseli-Park zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass in dem rund 390 Quadratkilometer großen Park nur wenig Wilderer aktiv waren. Das ist insbesondere dem Volk der Massai, den Besitzern des umliegenden Landes sowie der ständigen Anwesenheit von Touristen und Forschern zu verdanken. Damit gehört Amboseli zu den wenigen Regionen in Afrika, in denen die Altersstruktur der Elefanten unverzerrt geblieben ist. In dem Areal, das von Wildhütern und Wissenschaftern ganzjährig überwacht wird. Zwischen September 2007 und Mai 2008 wurde von Animal Planet eine 13-teilige Dokumentation über die Elefanten im Amboseli-Nationalpark und die Arbeit des Amboseli Trust for Elephants gefilmt. (de)
  • The Amboseli Elephant Research Project is a long-term research project on the ethology of the African elephant, operated by the nonprofit . The project studies the elephant's social behavior, age structure and population dynamics. It is the longest running study of elephant behavior in the wild, and has gathered data on life histories and association patterns for more than 2,000 individual elephants. The research project was initiated in 1972 by Cynthia Moss and in Amboseli National Park in the south of Kenya. Relatively few poachers have been active in Amboseli Park's approximately 390 km² area. This is especially due to the Maasai people, and the constant presence of tourists and researchers. Thus, Amboseli is one of the few regions in Africa where the age structure of elephants has remained undistorted. The area is monitored by game wardens and scientists throughout the year. The subjects of the Amboseli Elephant Research Project, mostly notably the elephant matriarch Echo, have been described at length in documentaries on PBS and Animal Planet. (en)
