Documentary Description
Deep in the forests of central Africa roams one of the world's largest, but most elusive land animals, the forest elephant.
Few are ever seen, and no-one knows how many exist: in fact, it was only a few years ago that scientists identified them as a unique species.
But researchers are now lifting the veil on the elephants' secretive lives, and they are doing so by listening to the rumbles in the jungle.
This month, scientists have published an acoustic survey of elephant numbers in the Kakum Conservation Area in Ghana.
It found around 300 elephants live in the conservation area's forests.
More important, the survey is the first to gauge elephant numbers in the wild by listening to them, instead of seeing them.
