Our orphan herd is bigger than ever before. As we look upon our growing family, we can’t help but think about all that the future holds. When an orphaned elephant is rescued, thus begins the journey of a lifetime. Rescuing orphaned elephants is not the work of a few years, but a long-term investment. The time they spend in our care, while formative, is but a brief chapter in a life that spans well over half a century.

Established in 1977, the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (SWT) operates the world’s most successful orphan elephant rescue and rehabilitation program, rescuing and hand-rearing orphaned elephants and other animals that have lost their mothers, all too often as a result of human activity. But we do much more than this. Through our Aerial, Anti-Poaching and Mobile Veterinary Units, we safeguard the natural environment and provide immediate assistance to wild animals in need. We also secure irreplaceable wilderness areas so that animals will always have space to roam and work with local partners and communities to ensure people and wildlife can live alongside one another.
