Episode description

An international team of researchers have analysed the movement and habitat preferences of 102 Asian elephants in Peninsular Malaysia and Borneo, recording over 600,000 GPS locations. They found that most elephants spent more than half of their time outside of protected areas, preferring slightly disturbed forests and areas of regrowth.
