He’s not about to let this get him down however; during one morning milk run, everyone was astonished to see Luggard dashing ahead, overtaking his fellow slow-moving friends Dololo and Musiara to reach the bottles first and earning him a very hearty round of cheers from the Keepers! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _________ Photo © David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust #DSWT #LuggardDSWT #elephants #kenya #whyilovekenya #bekindtoelephants #survivor #determination (her: David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqld5F3AnRg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jzdoysn8shr5

Read his amazing story! When Luggard came to us in 2016, he had been shot in the knee and foot — and we weren't sure that he would ever walk again. It's taken lots of specialized care (not to mention stalwart personal determination from the little calf), but a year later, Luggard is back on all four feet! #trunkupgoodluck #trunkupwines learn more about Luggard's story, visit: www.thedswt.org/luggard • • • Photo © David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust #DSWT #Luggard #LuggardDSWT #elephants #whyilovekenya #kenya #nairobi #dswtnursery #africa #magicalkenya #savetheelephants #nairobinationalpark #saynotopoaching #racingextinction #jointheherd #DSWTat40 #worthmorealive

#trunkupwines "Organized mayhem" accurately describes the morning milk rush! The orphaned elephants at the DSWT Nursery are fed specialist formula milk every three hours and their appetites are voracious; some go though 24 liters (6 gallons) in a day. There's always someone who wants more, though — today, it's Luggard! • www.thedswt.org/luggard • • • Video © David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust #DSWT #Luggard #LuggardDSWT #elephants #whyilovekenya #kenya #nairobi #dswtnursery #africa #magicalkenya #savetheelephants #nairobinationalpark #saynotopoaching #racingextinction #jointheherd #DSWTat40 #worthmorealive
