Elephant Nomads of the Namib Desert (2008)
Natural World follows two females as they guide their youngsters safely through the year, making sure they grow strong enough to endure the long treks that take the desert elephants to their next source of food. From the wild and remote shoreline of the Skeleton Coast, via the towering sand dunes of the ancient Namib Desert, to the high Kabere mountains of the interior, this is a fascinating journey with a unique group of animals.
