(Trade Paper, 5.5 x 8.5, 2008, Ecology)
In 1988, former big-game hunter turned conservationist Peter Byrne set out with his wife and small daughter for the remote White Grass Plains wildlife reserve in Nepal. They were looking for Tula Hatti, the largest known Asian elephant alive today. The plan was to film a documentary which would bring Tula Hatti to the attention of the Nepalese government, provide for the protection of his shrinking habitat, and make him a symbol of endangered wildlife everywhere. Tula Hatti is the story of their adventure, told with warmth, humor, and vibrant detail. Tula Hatti is a remarkable tale about a magnificent representative of vanishing wildlife and one family’s love and respect for his world.
