Over the past few days, our social media has been flooded with beautiful tributes to Craig and itâs been deeply moving to see just how much one elephant touched people around the world. These posts are a powerful reflection of who Craig was, and also a testament to those of us who have studied his kind and helped protect them.
It is fitting to share that the film âTusker: Brotherhood of Elephantsâ premieres on Wednesday, January 14 at 8/7c
@pbs and Youtube. Craig is one of the filmâs main characters, portrayed as the wise old tusker, alongside Pascal and Esau - fellow Amboseli elephants representing different stages of a male elephantâs life.
@joycehpoole 's brother,
@bobpoolefilms , his wife
@ginapooleidaho , and
@selengei âs husband
@thomasastafford shot and co-produced the film.
@elephantvoices also played a key role.
@joycehpoole served as Scientific Advisor, while
@selengei contributed behind-the-scenes photography and later worked as the Associate Producer, assisting with fact-checking and script annotation. We provided the recordings of elephant vocalizations, with
@joycehpoole laying the soundtrack that brings the elephants' voices to life.
Keep an eye out over the next few days, as weâll be sharing more about the film. đ
