Save the Elephants South Africa
Tanda Tula Safari Camp and Marlene McCay have been the chief benefactors of the “Save the Elephants South Africa (STE-SA)” NPO, based at Tanda Tula Safari Camp.

Save The Elephants is an NPO that was established by the world renowned Dr Iain Douglas Hamilton in Kenya in 1976. Save the Elephants South Africa, headed by Dr Michele Henley, has been operating a research program focusing on elephant migration patterns throughout the Greater Kruger National Park, Mozambique and Zimbabwe, for the last 8 years.

Dr Henley’s research has been endorsed and approved by SANParks, and has informed the South African government and SANParks in their management policies and decision making with respect to elephant populations in the Greater Kruger National Park, and the rest of Southern Africa. With Save the Elephants South Africa having its base at Tanda Tula Safari Camp, guests of Tanda Tula are invited to visit the researchers at the research centre to see what their work entails, and even to join the researchers in special “Day in the Field” exercises.

Contact our reservations for rates of the “Day in the field” exercises.

The Save the Elephants Mission:
“To secure a future for elephants and sustain the beauty and ecological integrity of the places they live, to promote man’s delight in their intelligence and the diversity of their world, and to develop a tolerant relationship between the two species.”
