💨 Abstract

A rare video of Oupoot, the last known elephant from the Knysna forest, has gone viral. Captured by a local farmer, the footage shows Oupoot wandering near the forest, triggering a conservation response from SANParks. Oupoot is the last of her kind due to habitat loss and hunting. SANParks is assessing the situation to protect the elephant, emphasizing scientific and stakeholder input.
