Physics the fundamental Science, have 
widespread application in field monitoring, satellite 
imagery, Global positioning system, GPS tracking, 
medical diagnosis through Deoxyribonucleic Acid 
(DNA), Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for mineral 
exploration, Ultra-scan and diagnostic radiology for the 
medical sciences. The attempt this time is to introduce 
the use of GPS/DNA in the study of wildlife census and 
migration, in the oil and gas exploitation field of Nigeria. 
This is using the Andoni elephants as case study. The 
process involve picking the dungs or sand of the foot 
print and analyzing for DNA. The study astonishing 
reveal that while the other traditional method of 
observation recorded the elephant population to be 40 
herbs ±5, by the Staowood (1981). The DNA study 
record is 9 herbs ±2 in 2002 speedy under pronatural 
Nigeria. A correlation with Bebort claim of his visits to 
Ilotombia Andoni in July 1700 shows the elephants takes 
off from March each year in the East Ikuru and migrates 
through the 27km length “124km2 
” Ngo barear island to 
reach Ilotobi in the west by July-August and takes a 
return journey back Ikuru in November. This correlates 
with the Yankari games migration experience, following 
seasonal watershed.
