Akimbo lives with his family on a game reserve in Kenya. When Akimbo sees what poachers do to the elephants on his game reserve, he is determined to stop them. There’s only one way to do it, and that’s to become an elephant hunter himself!

But it’s going to take strength and courage and will involve facing danger. Can he stop the poachers and save the elephants?
