CLEAN : Tracking elephants as new railway cuts Kenya

The video tutorial discusses various methods of collecting biological samples, such as blood, tissue, and fecal samples, for monitoring diseases and genetic analysis. It explains the importance of morphometric measurements in studying elephant growth rates and comparing habitats. The main focus is on understanding how infrastructure, like the standard gauge railway, affects elephant distribution, using elephants as a keystone species to gauge wildlife impact. Efforts to create elephant crossings to maintain landscape connectivity are highlighted, along with future challenges posed by new infrastructure developments.
