3. It's been almost a year since I visited the Sheldrick nursery in

Nairobi. I need to send more money.

5. I wanted to go there this fall. Thanks, donald. For nothing.

That would be a dream come true.

6. I didn't know you visited there.

I’ve been following Sheldrick for about 6years.

10. Yes, we got to watch various age groups of orphans drink

their milk bottles and play in the dirt.
Was there on Nov. 23, 2019.

4. I read his story earlier. The Sheldrick Trust does amazing work.

I adopted Esampu last year and this year I adopted Larro as a birthday gift for my daughter.

7. Larro is one of my babies, too!

Along with Ndotto, my first who I first adopted in 2015, then his BFF Lasayen (both have moved on from the Nairobi nursery) then Malima, Luggard, and Ziwadi. I also foster baby rhino Apollo & blind rhino Maxwell.

9. Little Luggard. Even with his damaged leg they think he'll be able to live wild.

I think it's so special when the orphans living in the wild bring their newborns back to meet their human family. What a wonderful testament to the love and care they received.

13. That's just the best. And you can tell how much it means to the keepers when they come to

visit. Elephants are such extraordinary beings.

8. Squee! Baby elephants are so damn cute!
