Headquartered in Kenya, Save the Elephants (STE) works to secure a future for elephants.
About us
Save the Elephants works to secure a future for elephants in Africa. Specializing in elephant research, STE provides scientific insights into elephant behaviour, intelligence, and long-distance movements and applies them to the challenges of elephant survival. Through our education and outreach programmes, we reach out to hearts and minds and help local people be the custodians of their own rich heritage. Our human-elephant conflict mitigation projects, especially beehive fences, have reduced the number of crop-raiding incidents, and provide farmers with elephant-friendly alternative sources of income. To battle the current surge in ivory poaching, our Elephant Crisis Fund is identifying and supporting the most effective partners in Africa and in the ivory consuming nations to stop poaching, thwart traffickers, end demand for ivory and ensure elephants are no longer under threat.

Exciting news! Giving Tuesday has landed early. 🥳 Starting today, donations made up to a total value of $30k will be triple matched by a caring donor, before midnight on December 3. 🐘 🐘 🐘 Elephants are being lost at an alarming rate because conflict with people has escalated rapidly. 🚨 But you can help to protect them today. 💚 A $12 donation - when triple matched - could provide a farmer with practical training in methods that keep elephants safely away from crops, and potential conflict with people.

Bees to the rescue! 🐝🐝 Discover how Kenyan farmers Charity Mwangome, Hendrita Mwalada, and Mwanajuma Kibula are using innovative beehive fences, developed by Save the Elephants (STE), along with other tools, to peacefully coexist with elephants in southern Kenya. A recent STE study shows that beehive fences are highly effective, with elephants avoiding farms protected by these fences 86% of the time during Kenya’s peak crop seasons. 🔗 Read more here: https://bit.ly/4flZ7wa 📸 Meha Kumar/Save the Elephants #beehivefences #bees #humanelephantcoexistence #savetheelephants #southernkenya #elephantconservation
