Birthday with orphans Elephants then after that #NTV Wild feature them.

The day started well, a lots of texts flows to my inbox as friends wishes me the 27th birthday from all over the world.  Received all with my inner heartfelt then head to wishes the wild babies in the wild their best time as I celebrated this big day. I decided that my day celebration can't be completed without sharing happiness with the amazing endangered species who are orphaned by the poaching menace due to human greedy for their ivories in the black market.
I took a Matatu to David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Nairobi national park before the time for these orphans comes back for the midday milk in the Nairobi nursery then back to the forest.
I arrived safely and give my fee for Elephants milk before get in to witnessed the session which I really enjoyed being with them.

About these amazing creatures in Nairobi Nursery unit: The infant nursery stage.
The orphan arrival after rescued orphan- infant elephants arrives at the Trust's Nairobi nursery severely traumatized by the events that have caused the separation from their mothers. The infant inevitably enters a period of deep grieving for its lost loved ones which can last for months. During this critical period survival hangs in the balance and not all calves can be persuaded to make the efforts to try live.
The Nairobi nursery offers a secure base and a loving environment to successfully nurture these orphans at a time of greatest need.

Why my birthday cake change to milk giving in the nature?
The magic milk formula; Wyeth laboratories SMA Baby formula, comprised of well emulsified fat with additional Calcium, Magnesium,Vitamin C and later on fortified coconut and cooked oatmeal porridge. Is the basis used by the trust, perfected by Dame Daphne Sheldrick for successfully rearing a new born elephant through its first very fragile few months. The milk formula must be combined with the correct intensive and hands-on husbandry which involved human family of keepers who replace the lost elephant family and stay with the orphans in the Nairobi nursery 24 hours a day, sleeping with the infants during night on a rotational basis.

As a conservationist may I appreciate the good work being done by the trust that has successfully rehabilitated many orphans and back to the wild for this incredibly successful reintegration program has enjoyed worldwide acclaim by accomplishing its long-term conservation as their priority.
Many thanks indeed for their great work their doing for our heritage. My massage to all our informants in the ecosystem lets be watchful to safe this magnificent species.


I am glad that the Ntv wild also feature this, It's a huge moment to value these magnificent creatures in our heritage.
Watch this?
