definition: The Amboseli Elephant Research Project (AERP) involves the study of elephants in Amboseli National Park in Kenya, Africa. This project started in 1972 when Cynthia Moss, who was studying the elephants in the park, identified and recorded more than 1,700 elephants by name, number, or code. Currently the project involves the collection, analysis, and production of datasets from the result of studying the 1,100 elephants presently living in the park.
