DSWT Elephant Orphans' Project | Sheldrick Trust

Описание: Dame Daphne Sheldrick, founder of the DSWT, pioneered the milk formula and husbandry needed to successful hand-rear milk dependent orphan baby elephants.

These skills and Daphne's knowledge have continued to develop over the years and been shared with keepers at the charity's orphanage in Nairobi. To date, more than 150 elephant orphans have been successfully rehabilitated by the DSWT, with more than 90 now living back in the wild - eventually they will all return to the wild where they belong.

This film provides an insight into what it is to be an orphan elephant rescued by the DSWT and provided a second chance.

Established in 1977, the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (SWT) operates the world’s most successful orphan elephant rescue and rehabilitation program, rescuing and hand-rearing orphaned elephants and other animals that have lost their mothers, all too often as a result of human activity. But we do much more than this. Through our Aerial, Anti-Poaching and Mobile Veterinary Units, we safeguard the natural environment and provide immediate assistance to wild animals in need. We also secure irreplaceable wilderness areas so that animals will always have space to roam and work with local partners and communities to ensure people and wildlife can live alongside one another.
