'Somehow, the elephants got into my soul, and it became my life's
work to see them safe and happy. There was no giving up on that
vision, no matter how hard the road was at times.' Francoise
Malby-Anthony is the owner of a game reserve in South Africa with a
remarkable family of elephants whose adventures have touched hearts
around the world. The herd's feisty matriarch Frankie knows who's
in charge at Thula Thula, and it's not Francoise. But when Frankie
becomes ill, and the authorities threaten to remove or cull some of
the herd if the reserve doesn't expand, Francoise is in a race
against time to save her beloved elephants . . . The joys and
challenges of a life dedicated to conservation are vividly
described in The Elephants of Thula Thula. The search is on to get
a girlfriend for orphaned rhino Thabo - and then, as his behaviour
becomes increasingly boisterous, a big brother to teach him
manners. Francoise realizes a dream with the arrival of Savannah
the cheetah - an endangered species not seen in the area since the
1940s - and finds herself rescuing meerkats kept as pets. But will
Thula Thula survive the pandemic, an invasion from poachers and the
threat from a mining company wanting access to its land? As
Francoise faces her toughest years yet, she realizes once again
that with their wisdom, resilience and communal bonds, the
elephants have much to teach us. 'Enthralling' - Daily Mail
