The Asian Elephants of the Kerala Rainforest


John Seed, founder of the Rainforest Information Centre, makes an appeal for the largest population of Asian Elephants whose survival in the wild is in trouble. The elephants face two separate threats in the states of Kerala and Tamil Nadu in India.

The video John made contains breathtaking elephant footage that shows just what the world stands to lose if this crucial corridor between Indian states is made inaccessible to the elephants.

John would like anyone who is interested in helping the elephants to take 30 secs. to sign the petition at: http://forests.org/shared/alerts/send . He also requests that you share this video through your blog, website, a link, word of mouth, or any means you have.

The film is directed/edited by Ruth Rosenhek with Fx by Neil Pike.
