All her life she tried to be a good person. Many times, however, she failed. For after all, she was only human. She wasn't a dog.

In Umani Springs, everyone now walks at ‘Mwezi pace’!
At just five days old, our tiniest girl can’t travel very far or very fast, but the herd is very, very happy to slow down to her baby speed.
Every baby born to a rewilded orphan is a miracle, but that miracle is compounded for our ex-orphan mum, Murera: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/n…

People putting “I Voted” stickers on Alex Pretti’s memorial is exactly the kind of tribute that matters. Not thoughts and prayers. Action.

Word travels fast in the forest. Baby Mwezi’s first day out with the Umani herd was a great success!
Murera gave birth in the middle of the night, tucked up in her stockade, but word still got out quickly in Kibwezi Forest. So quickly that, come dawn, all the wild-living orphans were waiting to meet her.
In case you missed yesterday’s news: bathed in the light of a near-full moon, Murera gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. She chose to deliver in her stockade, the place that has been her night-time sanctuary all these years. The whole thing was seamless, and mother and baby are both marvellous.
More to come, but we wanted to share Mwezi’s first moments with you. (Her name means ‘moon’ in Swahili!)
In the meantime, reacquaint yourself with Murera’s miraculous story: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/o…

If you’re voting red up and down the ballot because you think children are getting gender transition surgeries at school, you’re a fucking idiot.

Just hours old, and tiny Chili is already getting a tour of Ithumba.
It started with introductions to the Keepers who raised her mother, Chyulu, followed by a tour of the troughs that help sustain her herd through the dry season. In elephant society, knowledge is passed from mother to daughter. When Chyulu lost her mother, we stepped in to raise her. Now she is living wild and teaching her own growing family how the world works.
This scene has been years in the making. After years in our care, Chyulu has adapted to the wild, joined a herd, mated and nurtured new life. Your support makes it all possible: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/d…

Only hours old, and already meeting her extended family. That includes you!
Meet Chili, a tiny wild-born calf. Her mother, Chyulu, is an orphan we rescued, raised and rewilded, and she brought her newborn to our Ithumba Unit to meet the people who raised her.
Chili is the 96th calf born to our ex-orphans that we know of! This is what your support makes possible. Thank you for being part of Chili’s story, and ours: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org
Fiscally conservative says it all though.

It seems like we are experiencing a lot of health issues related to dirty water and air. We should set up some kind of a national center for preventing and controlling diseases to address this.
About three years ago we replaced our over the range microwave with a @GE_Appliances microwave and well, it’s not going so well.
