ABU CAMP NEWS
DEC 17 2011 Abu's herd matriach "Shireni" gives birth to female calf! The camp handlers have named the new-born "Warona" (SeTswana: 'For us').

The Abu herd now stands at a total of 7 elephants with the new addition offering hours of excitement and fascination to guests at Abu Camp.



With individuals rescued from culling operations or the effects of poaching, Abu's conservation program invests great care in the rehabilitation of the herd through which a total of 9 elephants have thus far been released into the wild, through support of Botswana Department of Wildlife and Parks.

Exciting new initiatives are being scheduled for 2012 in the Abu Camp elephant program with the interactive experience supervised by Dr Mike Chase (San Diego Zoo Post Doctoral Research Fellow).
