Gangala-na-Bodio Elephant Domestication Center

Gangala-na-Bodio (French: Centre de domestication des éléphants de Gangala-na-Bodio) was a colonial-era elephant-domestication station located in Gangala-na-Bodio, near Faradje[2] in present-day Democratic Republic of the Congo.[3][4] The Belgian project at Kira Vunga, Api and Gangala was the first attempt to domesticate African elephants for work.[5] Pierre Offerman was instrumental in setting up the station.[6]
