When elephants move onto community land, our pilots respond — tracking from above, guiding ground teams to move animals safely back. 110+ call-outs last year. Nearly 400 elephants returned to protected areas. What else does the Aerial Unit do? www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/news/updates...

It's breakfast time and everyone is welcome (even the monkeys). Some scoop, others shovel. The end result is the same: full tummies, ready to face the day. Follow us for more #BehindTheScenes of life with the orphan elephants in our care.
We are endlessly grateful to every one of our supporters who help us provide the first-class care orphaned elephants need to survive, thrive, and ultimately return to their rightful home in the wild. Are you one of our adopters? Like Thamana, we’re being nosy – who do you adopt?
Happy birthday, Losoito. To celebrate, she's having a party in the mud bath – and judging by the splashing, everyone is invited. When our pilot first spotted her in Tsavo West, she was two years old and keeping company with a large wild bull. sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/losoito
She arrived at just one week old – traumatised, crying, pacing her stable through the night. Today, Kaikai turns one. And she's been running Kaluku ever since she arrived. Extremely intelligent, and utterly convinced she's the centre of the universe. www.swt.bio/kaikai
Under a year old and already the most curious elephant at Kaluku. First: cardboard boxes – kicked, worn as a hat, flopped upon until they collapsed. Now: a spade and a tyre she treats as throne, pillow and plaything. sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/kaikai
A short trunk has never slowed Ashanti down. In March, she lay on her side in a wallow – in her element. Later in the month, she climbed to the summit of Msinga Hill, then embraced pal Baraka, trunk entwined, at the water trough. Discover her story: www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/asha...
Serenget arrived with a bullet wound and a prognosis nobody wanted. Prescribed bed rest, she hid in the corner of her stockade at first. Then — slowly — a step forward. An extended trunk. And soon, everyone was finding a reason to linger at her gate. www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/sere...
Ten years ago, Umani Springs didn't exist. Now its first orphans are having babies of their own. Lenny, Sulwe and Zigi are the latest arrivals. King of the forest and all. Meet our extended elephant family: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/calves
Lenny is 17 months old, fast, sociable, and entirely at home in the water. Born to ex-orphan Lima Lima – the Umani herd's scout, a suspected poaching orphan who raised herself and is now raising him with considerable hands-off verve. The 67th wild-born calf to an orphan we rescued. Leaving his mark.
Let's play Keeper. Our caregivers can recognise the orphaned elephants by ear notches, tusk shape and all. Now it's your turn. This orphan's trunk is shorter than you'd expect. She lost the tip to a poacher's snare and then was found alone, stuck in the mud. Drop your guess below.

Based on what we can see? Oregon is likely to be the first state to transition to Universal Health Care. Truly! It's audacious to say, but it is tangible. There is a transition plan due to the OR Legislature in 2026. Health Care for All Oregon has been advocating for this change for decades.

Sea Horse are monogamous. During mating the female transfers her unfertilized eggs into the male's pouch. The MALE carries the eggs and in active labour powerful contractions push our 2,000 or more fully independent seahorses! AMAZING!

Women in comedy are being silenced by more than just NDAs. As witnesses told the Women & Equalities Committee, a culture of fear is stopping many from speaking out.
