Savoirs médicinaux interspécifiques et interactions entre cornacs et éléphants dans le district de Thongmyxay au Laos by Jean-Marc Dubost, Eric Deharo, Sysay Palamy, Chithdavone Her, Chiobouaphong Haekovilay, Lamxay Vichith, Sébastien Duffilot, Sabrina Krief

“…The medicinal uses they make of some of these plants in their households are more consistent with their observations of these elephant behaviours than it is with the use of the same items by local healers, suggesting a transfer of medicinal knowledge from elephants to mahouts.Since some of the village elephants in Thongmyxay are still periodically released and come into contact with their wild counterparts, the domestication space forms an interface between humans, wild elephants and the forest, and we discuss conversely the possibility of knowledge transfer from mahouts to village elephants through the ethnoveterinary care they receive.This knowledge which is precious for the health and well-being of people and elephants in Laos is threatened by the reduction of the forest cover sheltering the resources used, and by the relocation of village elephants to tourist centres. Thus, emerges the need to think the conservation of the intangible heritage represented by the knowledge of hybrid communities in terms of interspecific heritage, implying that along with the preservation of the ecosystems that host the resources involved in this knowledge, care must be taken to maintain their access to all the populations (human and animal) that use them.…”
