For over a decade, Steve Boyes has been investigating the existence of 'ghost elephants' in a remote region of eastern Angola. These nocturnal creatures were long thought to be a myth.
The breakthrough came in 2024 when a motion-sensor camera successfully captured images of these elusive giants, confirming their existence.
Boyes' research not only verified the presence of these elephants but also revealed surprising genetic links to populations located hundreds of miles away.
