摘要: In this thesis I explore how elephant movements are impacted by human activity within the context of proposed Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA TFCA) in southern Africa. Being a wide-ranging species, elephants could be an excellent indicator as to success TFCAs supporting species persistence anthropogenic matrix. Understanding which areas beyond protected area boundaries heightened conservation importance can provide managers and governments with insights for management population KAZA TFCA, assist prioritising efforts.
