Another solid video!
Do you think Sri Lanka's current elephant population has enough space to increase or are elephant numbers limited by the amount of available habitat?
@@matthewzito6130 Actually, elephant numbers are quite high relative to the space available (there are even talks of exporting elephants to lessen the human elephant conflict 🤔). In fact, an island wide elephant census was conducted a few days ago in Sri Lanka. I think the elephant population is stable but there’s not enough space for them (or humans).
