Update on the ERP 5 -A-side Soccer Team

The #ERP 5-a-side soccer team is still going strong. Players from other teams are starting to recognise the #Groupelephant brand and are asking questions about the nature of the organization. The team also creates opportunities for ‘loan’ players to wear the Groupelephant shirt and represent the team.

REFLECTING ON 2018⁣

We deployed our ERP Airforce offering in a number of different reserves and applications in 2018. One of these applications was providing surveillance support to the field ranger team at Pilanesberg Nature Reserve in the North West province. The objective of this application was to provide monitoring support to the field ranger team during full moon periods when poaching incursions were most prominent.⁣
⁣
The ERP Airforce had a marked impact on the number of incursions during full moon periods and we are thankful to David Allen, the SPOTS team and our ERP team for the long hours they put into protecting the reserve’s threatened species.⁣
⁣
This picture shows the typical setup of our mobile ERP Airforce unit where our fixed wing UAV is operated from. Large monitoring screens and monitoring technology have been fitted inside the caravan which allows us to deploy anywhere and anytime.⁣
⁣
At #ERP, the life of every elephant and rhino matters. For more details on what we do, visit the link in our bio. ⁣

During mid-winter this year, the Samara family group found themselves in a light layer of snow, something which they had never experienced before. The herd was translocated to @samara_karoo Private Game Reserve from @kwandwe_ Private Game Reserve in a joint operation between ERP and the reserve management team at the end of 2017.⁣
⁣
The herd has settled in well, spending most of their time on the Samara mountain slopes. They were recently joined by two handsome bulls, Mvula and Kahle. This photo was taken by Penny Pistorius, our ERP elephant monitor who spends every day with the elephants, monitoring their habits, health and getting a better understanding of how well the elephants adapt to the Karoo environment. Penny had to take this photo from a fair distance as she did not want to disturb the family.⁣

How to weigh an elephant?⁣
⁣
Every translocation/capture operation presents an opportunity for ERP to collect important information and data about elephants and rhinos. This data is mostly used to improve the translocation operations i.e. size of elephants versus amount of the immobilising drug. It also gives us a good opportunity to get average weights of elephants and rhinos in relation to their shoulder heights and ages, giving us a better understanding of their growth rates.⁣
⁣
In this photo, an elephant is being loaded by its feet. This is the best method to load an elephant and causes no harm to the animal. The specialist capture team have loaded over 1600 elephants using this technique. You will note the yellow scale which the loading straps are attached to. This enables us to weigh the elephants during the loading process.⁣
⁣
This is Mvula, he weighed in at 5.7 tonnes, a very heavy elephant considering he is only 20 years old!⁣
