Serengeti Elephant Population on the Rise

6/21/2021

According to researchers at the Tanzania Wildlife Research Institute, the population of elephants on the Serengeti rose nearly 20%, from 6,000 to over 7,000 between 2014 and 2020. The population increase is ascribed to the effectiveness of anti-poaching measures instituted by the government, and increased security along the Park’s borders.
