Weaning is an important step for the orphans in their journey back to the wild. As the orphaned elephants grow older, we slowly reduce their milk intake as their diet becomes increasingly made up of fresh browse #BehindTheScenes pic.twitter.com/7Z1Tsd0Q0H

We can all relate to having an itch you just can’t quite scratch. Persistence is the key though and with a little ear adjustment (and the assistance of a tree) orphan #elephant Dololo’s got this one covered. pic.twitter.com/uLqGZhLTPD

Little Nabulu came into our care after rangers spotted her alone for 2 weeks without any family. We rescued her before she died of starvation or was attacked by predators – find out how she’s got on since: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/news/updates/t… pic.twitter.com/NQmkbpsbjV

Illegal logging for fuel & the charcoal trade, poses a big challenge to wildlife that call forests home, including birds, plants, insects and mammals. Find out how we are combating this devastating threat to #wildlife: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/about/challeng… pic.twitter.com/umeGTArKWP

Nursery baby Tamiyoi (L) takes her role of ‘protector’ very seriously. When the orphans came across some impala in the forest, she took it upon herself to clear them out of the way so that 'her' herd could peacefully browse.

Meru National Park is about the same size as the US state of Maine & was made famous as the home of Elsa the lion. Our De-Snaring Team & Mobile Vet Unit, in partnership with KWS, patrol here to alleviate animal suffering and protect threatened wildlife: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/about/where-we… pic.twitter.com/yID4NE1bzE

When orphaned #elephant Enkesha first arrived in our care after her rescue, she would dive into the mud bath to soothe her injured trunk. 2 years on, her trunk has healed but she’s still a mud baby & loves to wallow to her hearts content: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/enkesha pic.twitter.com/cS1AmSDMBb

Tsavo is home to Kenya’s largest population of #elephants as well as our Aerial Surveillance Unit. Test if you have the hawk-like eyes of our pilots & see if you can spot the individual that is staking a sit down/scratch? pic.twitter.com/s2t491Up0Y

Suswa & Rorogoi are two orphans at our Voi Reintegration Unit. They are still milk dependent but, thanks to regular interactions with wild herds, they will be ready to ‘fly the nest’ & reintegrate into wild herds in a few years’ time #behindthescenes pic.twitter.com/Fu1yPEbhAo

As the orphans in our care grow older, they acquire the social skills & confidence they need to reintegrate into wild herds. In good news, Sattao, especially, has been growing in confidence and playing with orphans he doesn’t usually interact with. pic.twitter.com/ypVRpSH3xn

#flashbackfriday This newborn elephant, still wobbly on her feet, is Wiva. She’s the first calf of Wendi, an orphan we rescued, raised and returned to the wild. 3 years on from her birth, both mum & baby are thriving: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/calves pic.twitter.com/HBBHJuQDgQ

Orphaned elephant Kiasa is only 2 years old so it’s not all that unsurprising that the sound of thunder gives her the frights. During a recent storm, she was trumpeting and rumbling throughout the evening, seeking comfort from her Keepers pic.twitter.com/aadseUWiPc

Dololo tries his hand (well, trunk) at ‘baton’ twirling. This orphan was initially very shy after his rescue but has since found a ‘band of brothers’ to play with at our Nursery. Adopt him this #FosterFriday: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/dololo pic.twitter.com/xx90bPLwLp

In June, Emoli graduated to Voi. We're pleased to report he's been settling in just fine, which is no surprise really, considering he was rescued from the area and might have some memory of the Tsavo environment pic.twitter.com/I09jytkLo2
