When Meghan Markle visited Botswana with Prince Harry in 2017, she was introduced to the unique matriarchal structure of elephant herds — a hierarchy that resonated for her.
Over dinner in Botswana, filmmakers Mark Linfield and Vanessa Berlowitz explained that females lead the herds and showed her portions of their in-progress Disneynature documentary, Elephant.
