The park, part of the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area, is home to over 45,000 elephants, which is twice the capacity of Zimbabwe's parks. Tinashe Farawo, spokesperson for Zimparks, confirmed 112 elephant deaths since September and cited climate change and overpopulation as contributing factors.
