An Interview with Lawrence Anthony - "The Elephant Whisperer"
By Adam Curry on Sunday, October 02, 2011 at 1:37 AM.
Anthony, conservationist and author (Babylon's Ark, 2007), owns a wildlife reserve in the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. A former hunting preserve, rumored to be part of the legendary Shaka's exclusive hunting territory, it has become a game reserve with a lodge for ecotourists. Home to Zululand's full suite of wildlife, Thula Thula had everything--except elephants. When he was offered a herd from another game reserve Anthony accepted wholeheartedly, despite the fact that these elephants were known escape artists.
Lawrence talks to me via Skype from the dark in South Africa. An amazing man!
