Paseka: The Easter Elephant

Paseka: The Easter Elephant

On Easter morning, a baby elephant is mysteriously abandoned by her herd in the wilds of Botswana's Okavango Delta. Saved from certain death by a bizarre chain of events, she forces herself into a very unusual, captive elephant herd. This is "Paseka's" story. We follow her first year in this spectacular African wilderness, learning daily what it means to be an elephant. What is instinctive? What is she taught by the elephants? What does she need to learn from the humans? How does her arrival change the herd dynamics? Her unique journey is our window into the elephant world.

Otters and the Exotic Pet Trade

Otters and the Exotic Pet Trade

Tracking the exotic pet trade of otters across the globe, is a story of gangsters and guns, mammals, and middlemen. Japanese otter cafés and social media influencers are driving increased demand for pet otters all over the world, with devastating consequences. These otters might be adorable, but the truth behind this trade is anything but. Ripped from the wild or irresponsibly bred, orphaned by poachers and confined in unnatural environments, these otters live a life of extreme misery. Following World Animal Protection intelligence, environmental photojournalist Aaron Gekoski investigates Otters and the Exotic Pet Trade.
