Elephants have long enchanted humans due to their intelligence, charm and majesty. Sadly, they are also one of the world’s most endangered species. According to author/animal welfare advocate Georja Umano, this places the entire planet’s environment in peril. “They are so large that rain in an elephant’s footprint can create a microsystem that can provide a home for tadpoles and other organisms,” she says. “The effects of their movements in both savannahs and forests help restore and maintain the balance of nature.” Georja spent two years working in Kenya and can share why it’s important to preserve elephants’ natural habitats, as well as how these lovable creatures positively impact global ecosystems. She is the author of “Terriers in the Jungle.” Contact Georja Umano at (213) 568-1764; gumano@rtirguests.com
