- The phone call we received on the evening of 3rd May 2021 made our hearts sink: A gravely injured female elephant had been sighted on the Chyulu Hills. Her right hind leg was shattered, likely as a result of falling in the rocky terrain, leaving her unable to walk. She had resorted to shuffling along in a seated position, struggling with every little movement. To further compound an already tragic situation, the female in question was the mother of two calves. One was a young, milk-dependent baby, the other was much older, around seven years of age.

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.

My heart broke at the loss of these babies' mother, but I was so uplifted to see how Esoit adapted so well and so fast to the rest of the herd. Thank you so much for all you do for these precious animals!!
The
@@jacquesderosee5196 I also noticed how many there were, sad that we are losing so many of our adult wild elephants....mostly because of us. :(
What happened to his mother? She had injuries but she is alive na??
What a magnificent fete. Extremely sad for poor Esoit’s mother. Good wishes to the all the team for saving this most beautiful baby elephant. X
Very sad about the loss of his mother. I’m happy that he has a herd to live with and learn from.
As a donator to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, I am truly in awe of the passion and love that continue to show, rescuing these young elephant babies to raise until adulthood, ultimately returning them to the wild. Thank you for sharing these updates and videos. These magnificent creatures are lucky to have all of you in their lives. Thank you for all that you do day in and day out.
I had to try hard not to cry when I see these babies lose their mother. Thank goodness for caring people like you at the Sheldrick Trust. God bless you!
Uh oh, this is reminding me of Luggard....beautiful sweet eyes this calf has. Pray that knee holds up for the rest of a long ellie's life!
I so agree with you ... memories of Luggard and the wish for a long life ahead!
This is Why i will always Donate to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, They are all so wonderful the humans and all the Beautiful Wildlife. Thank You for All You Do.
Hear, hear. I feel and do the same as you. ❤🐘
Amen. Ditto
As do herd rescue, all doing a great job.
I'll never forget seeing a TV documentary on Dame Daphne's work building up the rescue centre with her husband David and how she struggled to find the best milk alternative to feed the orphans. It's lovely that her daughter's dedication allows this incredible sanctuary to continue and I too am happy to give monthly donations. Love and admiration to all of the dedicated staff here 💕💕💕
Their murderers
Another amazing rescue, well done. Another baby ele with a chance of a new life, thank you
You all are angels. Sad to tbis baby bull to lose his mother in such a tragic way. I know he will be surrounded with TLC from his keepers and the other elephants. He now has a second home, a second family, and a second chance in life.
Thank you for saving this beautiful calf❤️🐘
Esoit has fitted in well with the other babies. You do wonderful work in helping these beautiful creatures who are so exploited. I love them. Please keep us updated.
I love the Sheldrick Trust for taking care of the orphaned elephants.
It breaks my heart to see the babies trunk tremble because there scared and don’t know what’s going on.
Is there anything you can do for his rear leg? 🥰🥰🐘🐘🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have left a legacy in my will to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. It is so easy, if you are writing a will and have the means. How wonderful that such good people live in this world.
Esoit's eyes are expressive. Certainly, his most sensual feature. Thank you for rescuing him
I love to see these rescue stories. Just knowing that the Beautiful babies or going to be looked after so lovingly makes me happy.❤️🐘👏🏾
I think these elephants sense these things.I heard elephants are very intelligent and when a love one dies they mourn.They will all gather around to say their last goodbyes with their trunks.Thank you for rescuing him.He looks so happy now.
It doesn't cost much to help. I give $600 US a year for a little milk formula for the babies and my adopted orphan, Larro.
Hello little Esoit and welcome to the herd! There are many foster aunties and uncles sending you all the best wishes!
I love watching your elephant videos, they brighten up my days. 😊 The baby elephant is so adorable & beautiful. 🌸
He is so cute! 😍 I hope his knee will heal quickly 🙏🏼
@2:15, such sad sad eyes. I love the fact that such young elephants can be saved, but I hate the fact that their mothers die and the families are separated. Yes, I’m probably being unreasonable, but grief is grief, and _it’s_ not always reasonable, either!
I wish his sister could come play with him, though...
They will meet in the wild someday. The death of an elephant always brings tears...
Why can't she? I don't know the whole story & don't want to read about the death of the poor, poor mother. Lost my dog a yr & 4 mos ago. Can't stand the thoughts of more sorrow.
@@vblackwell3347 then sister went off with a wild herd at the time Sheldrick rescued her baby brother. Who knows, maybe they can send signals back and forth to each other, and the sister will make her way to Nairobi to see him in the orphanage...wouldn't that be something...
@@vblackwell3347 Esoit was rescued from some distance away from the nursery. The sibling is 7 yo and was left where baby was rescued from in the company of the bulls Mum and young ellies had been seen with the days before the call about the injured mother. She had a broken rear right leg apparently from a fall on the rocky terrain where they were. Swt euthanized her after assessing her leg.
His back leg reminded me so much of our sweet Luggard that I think it was fate that I should adopt him today. Welcome to the family Esoit....You, Rama and Ziwadi are now members of the herd of my heart! ♥️🐘
Thanks! I think those 3 will go to Umani when they get older. :) I think Rama is already ready but that's he's still too new to the herd. :)
@@TlanImass Absolutely agreed!
Does remind of Luggard doesn't he, his "kin".
Thats exactly what i was thinking. Will adopt him in memory of little Luggard. I will proudly Foster him, Ziwadi, olorien, Murera, Rama and Mwashoti. Hé is in Good hands now. ❤️
A bel I match your sentiment about our mourned Luggard. After
adopting him for several years and gifting his adoption to a friend, as well, following his progress and hard times too, it was heartbreaking to learn of his death. We have nothing but love and respect for all the nurturing and guarding, rescuing and veterinary care from all those involved in these elephants care at the Sheldrick Rescue. What a dear little elephant! So glad to know that your kindness will help them all.
Iv supported the sled Rick trust many years ,dame seldrick was incredible,I love her work ,she wrote to me a few times ,thank god for this amazing family ,to carry on their work god bless them all lv Ann uk xx
Esoit you are beautiful 😘. So happy you were rescued. Bless everyone who loves and protects animals. Thank you! 👏🏴
I find the real God in you ppl! What an incredible job you guys do! Hatsoff and salute♥️👏
God’s eyes are watching you! He sees the good you are doing-caring for his animals, and will reward you accordingly in Heaven! Sending love, and thanks to you all!
What a beautiful, resilient baby. I'm always in awe of the work that you have done for so long and continue to do. Thank you for helping so many elephants ♥️
I am sad that she had to lose her life but glad that you were there for her and her baby and that you were able and kind enough to end her suffering. Without your help the calf would have languished, suffered and died as well.
Adopted 2 babies🐘🐘
Wow these situations are definitely heartbreaking. But it's best for sure. Making the decisions. And ellies grieve. Saving the calf and offering a second chance at life is spectacular on your end. This foundation is PRICELESS!!! ❤
As always thank you so much DSWT and it's many assistants. My heart drops each time, but my soul lifts each time knowing you were there.
Thank you dear carers..
This young boy is perfect for Umami Spring paradise when he's ready to graduate from the nursery
So glad there are people like you in the world. Amazing video.
Bonjour merci beaucoup pour tous ces éléphants que j'adore et que je respecte ❤
I hope everyone at Sheldrick Trust has enough of these good moments to balance out the sad ones; it's so hard to have to watch so many animals suffering on a regular basis. You guys are awesome, glad we can donate.
Oh My Heart crys Big Hugs thanks for rescuing such Baby Elephant 🐘 🐘 🐘 🐘 🐘 🐘 🐘 🐘 🐘 🐘 🐘
Big Thank you to all carers My Heart felt thanks from my Heart to all of yours

He's adorable. Looking like a plush toy in the thumbnail photo. So sorry for the trauma to him and his older sibling (hope (s)he eventually reunites with the herd). Much love to the entire Sheldrick team.
I weep a Sea of Tears. You restore me Faith in People. Huge THANK for Your Work. God Bless.
Always sad to lose one of these majestic creatures, but thank you for saving Esoit.
She's beautiful and right where she needs to be... Surrounded by the love of humans and elephants alike. RIP momma💜🐘💜🐘💜🐘
Dios los bendiga, a todos ustedes por la gran lavor que hacen con estos animalitos tan hermosos, los elefantitos.Muchas gracias.1😢🐘💕💖♥️🐘🐘🐘🙏🙏❤❤❤❤♥️♥️🐘♥️😍😘🥰
A great rescue and Esoit is happy with the other babies. You are doing wonderful work in helping these sweet pachyderms.
God bless you all
His injured leg reminds me of Luggard now in heaven :) Thank you for saving him and giving him a second chance.
Hoping best for the beautiful baby elephant 🐘💚
Fantastic!
That thumbnail of him just melts my heart. Thank you for saving him and helping him recover ❤
So happy he was rescued
He is beautiful and reminds me of Lugard, our adoptee, who just passed. Your foundation is wonderful beyond words.
I couldn’t stop crying and crying and cry 😭. Be Blessed Always xoxoxo 🐘❤️🕊
A gorgeous little bull elephant. Very sad about his mother but with his injured leg it is probably better he is in constant care. 🐘💗
Poor baby, it's so sad. Fortunately when so young they adapt quickly with the other orphans and humans. Thank you so much👍❤️
He needs to be closely watched, baby elephants are extremely fragile,band he has seen his mom suffer, and knows he has lost his Mom. It is devastating to any baby
@@jaycuzman625 for sure, but they are excellent keepers who handle this dramatic part of the orphans' lives, so well. In the wild, he wouldn't have survived.
@@martineinfrance I agree
God bless all who have played a part in this wonderful cause.
So sad, and so beautiful, such an Elephant angel.
The endearing love of the herd is such an inspiration...beautiful, thank you so much. The piano music is lovely as well :)
Thank you so much for all Ur support kind and care... God Bless you and Ur family.... My eyes filled with tears...💖
There is nothing so precious and beautiful to make my day more happier than seeing this. Thankyou for all your love for them.❤
It is so heartbreaking that organizations like Sheldrick Wildlife Trust must exist. It is heart warming that they do. I adore their videos. Elephants are the most beautiful beings I have ever seen. Esoit is perfectly, adorably beautiful, along with all the others. Thank you for what you do. ❤❤❤🐘
Babies are truly resilient in ways that just leave us in awe. It was unfortunate that his mother was so gravely injured while he is still so young, but life in the wild is hard and dangerous and euthanizing her was likely a kindness.
Great job with the baby! He's definitely a cutie!
Lovely video. Thank you for your efforts and compassion. Seeing these gentle and intelligent creatures together as family ( herds) again is heartwarming.
I like how your team seeks to " secure" wildlands for the elephants to sustain their natural lives in conjunction with neighboring communities. We all need to learn to share our world. 😊
Congratulations for being such an ally to the ellies.
🐘❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🐘
God bless you all.
Such beautiful sweethearts ❤️❤️❤️🧸🧸
Thank you so much for everything you do for these beautiful majestic animals! You are their angels! 🐘❤️ I cried watching what you do is so moving ! ❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️
So blessed to have Esoit safe now!!! Thank you for your honorable work!
OMG..this v v young baby,has massive leg problem,may b had a fracture 😪😪😪
I love all the people at Sheldrick. Everyone there goes above and beyond for these most precious babies. I have an adopted baby there and I always look forward to getting Kiasa updates. Thank you for sharing this story with me although sad, mama lives on through her beautiful babies. 💖
So proud and grateful to have received a hand written thank you letter from Daphne Sheldrick in 2000 after sending a donation to this amazing wildlife orphanage.
I never expected that.
💎 Precious Daphne.... We will never forget what you gave to our world 💚✌🏽💚.
This story is heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time.
Thank you for all you do, ST. 💕🐘💕
I just adopted this young sweetie for a year. God bless him and those caring for him. My heart broke to read about the loss of his mother.
Oh what a story. Whew. Thanks for sharing. Hard to believe that that knee will be okay since it doesn't look well. Thank you for all you do.
Thanks for rescuing him Halleluyah for the work y’all do and the special people that do it 🙏🏾💕🐘
Moc miłości dla Was wszystkich 🙏💝👬💖🐘🐘🐘🐘🌟🥰🙏 Monika z Polski 💚
🙏🙏🙏😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘
Very difficult to be able to read the lower case sub titles. Am I the only one ? Please DST can you remedy this situation ? it's very frustrating not being able to follow the story correctly. Why the mother was euthanised ? I can't read it correctly.
Can I ask you why not having kept the most read lower case as before. I'm following you since many years and it used to be easier before. Thank you.
I agree--also, need a bit more time to read whole sentences. Evenso, kudos & blessings for all yr efforts 🌞👍
So sad to loose the mother but what you did was the hardest most loving thing you could have done. Now Esoit has a chance to grow up and rejoin a wild herd down the road one day. He will also take a little of his mother with him .
Thank you for saving another precious life. ❤
The Sheldrick Trust is amazing. I am so happy to support these amazing people and all they do
Bonjour Esoit , bonjour carer , une belle et bonne journée !
Спасибо❣ Спасибо❣ Спасибо Вам прекрасные люди💖💖💖 Вы спасаете и помогаете выжить этим прекрасным и наидобрейшим животным💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
So sad I am so happy that you SWT find this little calf Esoit and is now safe in Nyrsery Narobi with the keerpers incare and Esoit shall be soon healhty and play with other calves. I shal donate Esoit as a foster parent this little wonderful loving baby elephant. God bless you all.
Hi I just joined you with fostering our beautiful Esoit--we are blessed to be able to offer our support. Thank you Sheldrick Trust for all you continue to do!!
I know you are experts when it comes to elephants, but please the swollen back leg needs to not only be looked, diagnosed and treated sobir will heal properly. It is not healing on its own. You are a magnificent organization.
Los amo a todos están en buenas manos y lejos de cazadores
Hermosos hermosos 🤗🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘💝😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Beautiful elephant. So sweet and kind
so moving Esoit and so beautiful adorable baby ! he received a very good welcome ! it’s amazing and iso heartwarming ❤!!
It makes you wonder if the mother’s injury and the calf’s injury occurred at the same time. To bad the calf was too young to stay with the sibling. The poor sibling lost its mother and baby sister.
I agree with you. 👍💓
8bStupid heartless trolls..love elephants..thank you guys for what you do
Very sad history of the most animals, unfortunately. 😭💔...But, by God, the world has good blessed people who save and care this angels. Thank you very very much for your goodness and compassion! 🙏 💚 🐘🐘🐘🍀 ✨
I aways say it when l see a rescue. How very lucky to have been found by these amazing people. So so sorry 😢 for the mumma ellie 😭 The brother seemed to have found his place, leaving this little angel with the funny knee. Bless you beautiful 😘 live long and happy 🐘
Bless you all for the incredible work you do with these beautiful creatures. This is what true humanity is - caring for those who are unable to care for themselves 💙💙💙
So sad about his Mom but he's alive and perfect! Happy as can be! ❤❤❤ thank you
Thank you so much SWT for all the hard work and efforts! Just adopted Esoit today, I hope he will grow healthily and joyfully together the other babies🙏. They are all incredible animals!
Hey little guy, my knee is crummy too, besides, you're WAY cuter than me. I so wish that I could give much more than I do to The Sheldrick Trust. Thanks to all of you kind people.
It's so heartbreaking to read about Elephants in the Wild like this one that was still Mother two young elephants-- all living animals must "Pass On " eventually--- Thank you for making this Mom Elephant's "Journey's End " a much easier one for Her-- She does not know what happened to her two Youngsters--- but all of us here know they are well taken care of-- and Somewhere in the Great Beyond--- Someone else knows it.
Too bad they couldn't save mom. They needed that animal splint magicisian in PA. He's helped ellies before🐘 That part is very sad. Well, he helped 1 huge bull. Changed his life
Would it be possible to Laser Esiot's calcified knee? Our Vets do this for certain arthritus in dogs. xxx
So glad Esoit was rescued.
It would have been Better of you could have said the mother too. I don't believe there no chances even in a desperate situation and Life has to be always the winner. I know It isn't easy but noone said it would have been. I never find comfort in death, on the contrary.... Josie
Well said, Mrs. Cirigliano! ❤
Trabajar con animales es maravilloso pero también muy descorazonador, tener que tomar esas duras desiciones de eutanaciarlos enferma un pedazo de tu alma pero con el tiempo se va sanando por qué hay que seguir en la lucha por ellos.
What a tragic start to this beautiful elephant's life but thankful he was found by your wonderful rescue trust. What would they do without you? What a little character ❤️❤️❤️
