Give a short description of the method used to arrive at the estimate: From the aerial count, if the 6 herds counted were unique the total elephant count would be 361 individuals but a minimum number of 82 individuals which was the size of the largest herd observed.
Population estimate - minimum: 82
Population estimate - maximum: 361
