Senegal has one of the most threatened elephant populations in Africa, with the population in the Niokolo-Koba park diminishing from 450 in the late 1970s to between 5 and 10 currently, according to the Elephant Crisis Fund

Senegal’s elephant population has been reduced to just a handful due to decades of poaching, deforestation, and habitat encroachment.

So this rare sighting in a remote area has brought hope to conservationists.
