Field Notes

Description:

large circular print, almost 18" across

Habitat:

rainforest

Notes:

I stayed a week in Bia national park. I searched for forest elephants in 2 different sections of the park with no luck. We heard them and saw fresh evidence of them but they eluded us. For such a large animal, they can be very hard to spot in the forest.
