As big as a bus, weighing up to 11 tons, elephants have fascinated us for centuries, but only recently have scientists been able to observe their innermost workings as individuals, families, and herds. Secrets of the Elephants—companion to the highly anticipated televisions series from National Geographic—takes us to the few places in the world where elephants roam.
