Echo and family respond when their charismatic daughter is stolen by another group of elephants.Echo, the remarkable matriarch of a family of elephants in Kenya's Amboseli National Park, was most studied elephant in the world, the subject of several books and documentaries, including two NATURE films. For nearly four decades, elephant expert Cynthia Moss, and award-winning filmmaker Martyn Colbeck were on hand to record the trials and triumphs of Echo and her family, documenting the intense loyalties and deep caring that are so fundamental to all elephants, creating a moving record of a life we all can share.
Echo died of natural causes at the age of 65 in May of 2009, leaving the family she had cared for and guided for so long to face the worst drought ever recorded in Amboseli on their own. It was a final test of the years of Echo's leadership. Had she taught them all they would need to survive without her? Could her wisdom continue to provide for them even after her death?
"Echo: An Elephant to Remember" premieres on PBS Sunday, October 17, 2010 at 8pm and is part of the 29th season of the Peabody and Emmy award-winning series produced by Thirteen in association with WNET.ORG for PBS.

How utterly, utterly amazing elephants are. We, as people should respect and care for them so much better than we do, they are so abused in their native countries and in the 'entertainment' world. They are incredible.

Ebony era una monada, no me extraña que quisieran secuestrarla, pero menuda es Echo para consentir tonterías con su familia.
