Car Problems
Category: Uncategorized | Date: Jun 20 2008 | By: elephantsofbotswana
Well, we are all hard at work, but stuck in the office as our vehicle has been struck down. The mechanics are busy trying to sort it out but at the moment we do not know what is wrong with it. The delta is very hard on the cars and this time of year is particulary bad because of all the water around. We all have our fingers crossed that the car is back on the road soon and that the solution is not too expensive!!!

Hi, I am Kate Evans, or more commonly known as Elephant Kate. I am a zoologist whose great love is elephants. Since 2002 I have been living my dream by researching elephants in the Okavango Delta in Botswana. I decided I was going to be an elephant researcher when I was seven. I was living in Asia at the time and visited the elephant orphanage in Kandy, Sri Lanka. It was there that I made up my mind I was going to work for these majestic and intelligent animals. I made a promise to an elephant and we all know an elephant never forgets!!!! It took me 20 years to finally realise my dream and start my life as an elephant researcher. It was 20 years well spent and now I have to pinch myself most days to make sure it is true and I am living my dream.
I now head up a team who are researching the elephants and trying to work out the social and ecological needs of the largest remaining population of the African elephant. From time to time, other team members will add their thoughts and experiences. I love sharing my experiences - so I hope that this blog is a medium through which you will be able to join the elephants and I on our adventures in the Okavango Delta, Botswana. -
