We had a book by Daleen Mathee that we had to read in high school. It’s about lumberjacks working in the Knysna Forest… well my shortened version in any case ;)

It’s a lovely forest next to the sea. Elephants used to wander through the trees, but only a few are left and are spotted on rare occasions. Rather sad actually.
