Starting our day the Kaikai way! If you ever wondered what a happy elephant looks like – look no further. Our little ray of sunshine shines her emotions with every peppy step and swing of the trunk. Kaikai (and her sidekick Bungalu) are two of the youngest orphans in our care, and they are here today because of supporters like you. Both will have a home with us until they are ready to reclaim their place in the wild – a process that may take upwards of a decade. By adopting, you support their journeys and receive regular updates on their progress. Adopt Kaikai: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/o…

#Throwback to milk inspector Korbessa urging Keeper Joseph along – those bottles won't make themselves! Back then, Korbessa was being fed milk on demand – it's easy to see how she acquired the nickname "boss lady". Today, nothing has changed! What began as an one-off extra serving of milk after breakfast has turned into a daily expectation of an extra bottle of milk as her daily right. The boys in the herd don’t even bother asking – they know that bonus bottle belongs to her. Discover Korbessa's story: swt.bio/korbessa
