Ghost Elephants
Channel: Disney+
TX Time: 10h00
Genre: Wildlife, Documentary Series
In the mist-covered highlands of Angola, deep within Africa's last great subtropical forest, a mystery endures: the elusive ghost elephants of Lisima, the potential living descendants of the largest land mammal ever recorded.
Steve Boyes, conservation biologist and National Geographic's Okavango Wilderness Project leader, is determined to prove their existence.
In order to find these elusive elephants, Boyes and fellow National Geographic Explorer Kerllen Costa have teamed up with three KhoiSan master trackers - Qui (/ui), Qui-Dawid and Kobus.
Refugees from a war-torn past and considered among the most marginalised people in southern Africa, the trackers return to their ancestral lands to succeed where advanced technology could not.
Guided by trance, memory and the sacred "Elephant Dance", their journey becomes an odyssey through a land of living myth, where forest spirits guard ancient lakes and the Luchaze people remain the last watchers of a vanishing world.
As they reconnect with the "Source of Life" - the waters that sustain the Okavango Basin across Angola, Namibia and Botswana - they seek not just lost elephants, but a path back to identity, hope and belonging.
Through storytelling style, sweeping visuals and rare access to the Luchaze people, Ghost Elephants is a lyrical tale of survival, reconnection and the enduring power of ancient knowledge in the face of modern loss.
