Dag Goering

Dag Goering is a veterinarian who started the Elephant Earth Initiative with his wife, the author Maria Coffey. The organization was inspired by a trip to Rajastan, India, where Goering was present for the birth of a captive elephant’s baby, the first such event in more than a century there. Motivated by that moment, he and his wife have since worked to help elephants survive in an increasingly hostile world.
