National Geographic - Queen Elephant (2014) 720p HDTV x264-MVGroup

For African elephants, survival depends on successful migration to and from their ancestral feeding grounds each year. They must constantly follow the rhythms of the seasons, treading the millennia-old paths to reliable sources of food and water—and away from dangerous predators. During the dry season of late summer and autumn, elephants must risk the journey toward water and the promise of continued survival for the herd. Crisscrossing the continent from watering hole to watering hole, the herd can only survive if its leader remembers the exact location of each crucial pit stop. This responsibility falls to the matriarch of each elephant herd: the eldest female has a long memory, coupled with a lifetime of honing her instinctual awareness of the landscape around her. After the tragic death of her mother, the old elephant matriarch, Mensah must now take her young calf and the herd to safety. She is their final hope and must lead them into their ancient feeding grounds.
