Today, on #GivingTuesday, you have the power to double your impact. Thanks to our generous philanthropic partners, every donation and adoption received today (up to our campaign limit) will be matched up to $800,000. Every day, our teams are in the field responding to emergencies, safeguarding fragile habitats, and ensuring that no orphan is left behind. Your support makes this possible, funding the vehicles that reach remote rescue sites, the aircraft that patrol threatened landscapes, and every litre of water delivered to thirsty wildlife. You can help us respond to today's emergencies, and build a better future for wildlife. Find out how to participate in our time-limited campaign and make twice the difference today through your donation: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/c…

Three Novembers with Korbessa! Nothing captures the passage of time quite like watching an orphaned elephant grow up. While she is still very much a baby, Korbessa is morphing into an increasingly mature, measured young elephant. Back in 2023, she was a newly rescued baby - jealous when ‘big brother’ Toto stole the spotlight, and not afraid to show it! Last year, she was becoming stronger and more independent, though just as sassy as ever. This year, Korbessa is morphing into a new role: big sister! This is just the beginning of Korbessa’s journey back to the wild. Adopt her and become part of her story: swt.bio/korbessa

It's hard to claim innocence when caught with your hand in the cookie jar, or in this case, trunk in the milk powder! With that in mind, Korbessa took a more laid back approach, when found having to have not only sampled the powdered, but dusted herself in it!

The latest editions — exclusively available to foster parents — have just been published: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/k…

'The browse is always greener on the other side!' With their adjoining bedrooms, Korbessa can't resist trying to grab an extra snack by reaching through the partition wall for Toto’s night-time greens! Best friends they may be, but it's every elephant for themselves when it comes to snacks! Related by circumstance, Korbessa and Toto have grown up side by side at our Kaluku Neonate Nursery, and their bond is as strong as ever — even if Korbessa sometimes tests the boundaries (and Toto's laid back nature)!
