The Epicenter of a Conservation Divide.

Of Tusks &Tears follows the conservation organizations mitigating the erupting conflict between humans and elephants in Africa. In the desperate contest for food, water and space, local communities find themselves face-to-face with the elephants that have occupied the land for millennia in disputes that can often end in bloodshed. Without viable mitigation tactics, both populations will find themselves living in uninhabitable areas, a decay that is rapidly spreading to the rest of our world. Time is running out!

THE FILM

We are dealing with the reality of our own species... This is not as clear cut. There is no enemy here.
— Dr Lucy King

This powerful documentary is the lead off to what will become a 10 episode series highlighting human-wildlife conflicts around the world. We follow the heroes on the frontlines as they investigate the unique challenges that each area faces in the global fight to save our world’s wildlife and find solutions for the communities that live along side them.

THE INITIATIVE

We will change the outcome for people & wildlife together by taking action.

By joining forces and becoming our partner, together we will share the film to audiences world wide, creating important conversations around human wildlife conflict while reducing the impact of hunger, safeguarding the long term survival of species and promoting the coexistence of human-wildlife populations.
