Elephant Capture

Whilst I was at Addo, I was lucky enough to see them capture some of the elephants so they could move them to a different national park. 1st they darted them from a helicopter, then used a crane to put them on the back of a tractor before dragging them into a truck and reversing the sedative. Once they came too, the elephants moved into the smaller part of the truck and were taken away fully conscious
