The Elephant Conservation Center is probably one of the few places you can visit where it’s not about elephants adapting to people’s schedules and needs but where people adapt to the rhythm and needs of the elephants I am very picky when it comes to choosing an Elephant “place” as there are far too many all over the world which treat their elephants badly and which just means moving from one horrible life (=logging) to another (= bad treatment for tourism purposes).
Kituo cha Hifadhi ya Wanyama, bila shaka, ni moja ya maeneo machache unayoweza kuyatembelea na kujionea jinsi watu wanavyobadilika kulingana na vionjo na matakwa ya Tembo na siyo Tembo kubadilika kulingana na namna watu wanavyoishi. Linapokuja suala la kuchagua niende kwenye sehemu ipi ya utalii wa Tembo, huwa ninakuwa na machaguo mengi kwani karibu maeneo yote ulimwenguni huwa na tabia ya kutokuwajali kabisa tembo, ikiwa ni sawa tu na kuhama kutoka kushuhudia maisha mbaya kabisa ya tembo (= kusafirisha magogo) kwenda kushuhudia maisha mengine ya tembo(= kutokutunzwa vizuri kunakotokana na shughuli za kitalii).
