摘要：

The movement patterns and home range of elephants in the Waza National Park are discussed. Home range size varied from 785 to 2 534 km2. One elephant moved up to 100 km away from Waza N.P., towards Kalamaloue National Park. The second elephant stayed in Waza N.P. throughout the study period. This study supports the hypothesis that the Waza elephant population is divided into at least two sub-populations or clans: the resident sub-population and the northern sub-population which migrates between Kalamaloue and Waza N.P.
