Description: Every graduation is a momentous occasion — but this particular move was a milestone for all of us at the Trust. On the morning of 10th January 2022, we celebrated our Kaluku Neonate Nursery's very first graduating class. Lemeki and Thamana said farewell to the place they have called home for nearly four years and moved to our Voi Unit in Tsavo East National Park. Read the full story: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/news/updates/lemeki-thamana-graduate ------------ 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.
