Popular places to visit

When a tiny new-born elephant is orphaned, it is often because its mother and family have been killed to serve the brutal ivory trade. For an elephant, family is all important; a calf’s very existence depends upon its mother’s milk for the first two years. In Kenya an Elephant Nursery exists nestled within Nairobi National Park under the auspices of the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, which is overseen by Dr Dame Daphne Sheldrick, whose elephant experience spans a lifetime. This pioneering organisation, which works in partnership with the Kenya Wildlife Service offers hope for any orphaned elephant fortunate enough to be found alive.

Touristy, kind of, but well worth the wait and price as you are supporting the fantastic work of Daphne Sheldrick and her volunteers as they bring awareness of the brutal effects of elephant and rhino poaching. Alamaya, the newest baby seen here, was found lying by her slaughtered mother in the Kenyan Mara, but as you can see, she is doing well under their care.
