The People Helping to Raise Baby Elephant Khanyisa! Her HERD Carers! 💕

So much love and dedication has gone into the raising of baby elephant Khanyisa, the snare survivor and orphan who has now fully rehabilitated and is counting down the days till she joins her new family in the bigger elephant homestead!

This love and dedication has come from our carers on a daily basis, as each orphanage carer has played a role in Khanyisa’s emotional and physical wellbeing, providing her with a helping hand, sweet potatoes, water, milk bottles, stimulation, exercise, rest, and blankets! They are her doctors, teachers, nurses, mothers, fathers, blanket tailors, gardeners and more!

Watch their journey with albino calf, Khanyisa as she grew and grew and grew, from a tiny pink tot to a towering forager and efficient swimmer! Thank you to our carers, for their day to day hard work and gentleness in looking after Sunshine and all the elephants!
