#NDOTTO 🤣#Repost 📷@dlberry_capture_africa_tours #Instagramtakeover ・・・ 🐘 Work Week 🐘 Sometimes when you need to get something done you do it yourself. Ndotto has decided to start breaking ground for a new playground at the nursery in Nairobi. Well not really but he is ready if needed. #dswt40 #dswtfosterparents #nairobi #kenya #whyilovekenya #saynotoivory #dswt #elephants #elephant #picoftheday #iphonepic #iphone6 #davidsheldrickwildlifetrust #wildlifeconservation #repost #regrann ℹ Photo credit @dlberry_capture_africa_tours ❤Please foster a baby and help save a life go to @dswt or www.dswt.org/foster

📽🎬 @kim_weis ・・・ Congratulations #Ndotto and #Lasayen on your graduation. Here were these two a year and half ago on my last visit. Ndotto was trying to play and Lasayen was trying to eat. Ndotto gave me a side eye. 😂. I am excited to visit these two sweet bulls in their new home next month. #DSWT @dswt 📽 Video credit.@kim_weis

#NDOTTO #Repost @robbrandford ・・・ Graduation - I’ve been fortunate to know this little chap since he was rescued as an orphan, just days old, in 2014. He would not have survived without @dswt - providing him the love, protection and diet he needed to thrive. To see him graduate from the Nursery today and move, with elephant friends Lasayen and Mbegu, to DSWT’s Voi Reintegration Unit is incredible. That he’s not only alive, but now in Tsavo, surrounded by elephants and seeing wild ones is simply amazing. So proud of him and those that raised him through infancy, and cannot wait to see what the future holds for this earth angel. (Check @dswt feed for lovely video of their arrival and welcoming committee at Voi today) • #ndotto #everylifematters #realconservation #whyilovekenya #healing #whyilovedswt #oneelephantatatime #elephants #secondchances #life #love #hope

Look how warmly welcomed and loved they are from their Elephant family! #trunkupwines @dswt ・・・ Today is no ordinary Monday — it’s a milestone moment for all of us as Mbegu, Lasayen, and Ndotto graduate from our Nairobi Nursery to the Voi Reintegration Unit! These three youngsters, who were rescued as babies (and tiny ones at that — Mbegu was seven weeks old, Lasayen one month old, and Ndotto just two days old at the time of their rescues), now embark on the next step of their journey towards a life back in the protected wilderness of Tsavo East National Park. As they set foot on Voi’s red earth, they received the most wonderful welcome from the 22 orphans who currently live there, and we know that they will be very happy among their extended family. We have successfully raised more than 200 orphaned elephants over the past 40 years, and every single graduation is a major milestone to celebrate. Days like today are monumental; these elephants would not be alive were it not for their rescuers, the DSWT, and those who believe in and support our conservation work. We are so pleased that we can share their arrival with you as, without you, moments like this one could not happen. #DSWTgraduations • If these three elephants are new to you, then we encourage you to read their stories to understand why they had needed our help: www.thedswt.org • • • Photo © David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust #DSWT #Mbegu #MbeguDSWT #Ndotto #NdottoDSWT #Lasayen #LasayenDSWT #elephants #voi #voireintegrationunit

...because after @fiona_hardie 's famous Monday videos, you will never have a bad Monday! ・・・ It's #MondayMilkMadness #Ndotto hungrily gulping down his milk. I love the late afternoon sun shining on him, the elephant grey skin covered with orangey/red sand...his eyes glinting like amber stones. Isn't he beautiful. 🐘 I can't tell you how much I love elephants. Mother Nature created perfection. So why are we so hell bent on destroying perfection and stealing from this earth? #saveourelephants #banthedamnivorytrade #banpoaching #dswt #fosteranorphanelephant #unitetofight #stopridingelephants #banhunting ℹ Video credit @fiona_hardie ...🐘🍼🥛🌱🌍 www.dswt.org/foster (at The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust)
