Ghost Elephants - Die Geister im Hochland Angolas (2026)
Seit zehn Jahren sucht Dr. Steve Boyes im abgelegenen Hochland Angolas nach einer geheimnisvollen Herde sogenannter Geisterelefanten. Das riesige, fast unbewohnte Plateau gilt als einer der letzten weißen Flecken auf der Landkarte. Unterstützt von erfahrenen Fährtenlesern aus Namibia begibt er sich auf eine beschwerliche Expedition, die Spuren dieser Tiere aufzunehmen. Doch mit jeder Etappe wächst die Frage, ob es überhaupt wünschenswert ist, die seltenen Riesen zu finden – oder ob ihr Fortbestehen als Idee, als Legende, vielleicht mehr Bedeutung hat als ihre tatsächliche Entdeckung.
