You might not think you need to prep your vehicle for animal violence, but when elephant traffic got complicated, Bob Poole had to come up with a pachyderm-proof package.
Bob Poole is an Emmy Award–winning filmmaker. His sister, Joyce, is one of the world's leading authorities on African pachyderm behavior. In the Pooles' 2012 documentary,, the siblings visit Mozambique's Gorongosa National Park—once home to a thriving wild-elephant population, now decimated by civil war and poaching.
The elephants remaining in the park are often wary of and even violent toward humans. The Pooles recorded their interactions with the herds in hopes of helping the elephants while highlighting the importance of animal conservation. To do this, they needed a vehicle that could get them across the wild terrain and stand up to an aggressive elephant—just in case diplomacy failed.
