      You're been spamming this channel. Are you assigned to be here? If Keystone species don't survive (which the elephant is), then other species won't either. It's paramount that elephants not become extinct, which they will without intervention. The children are their parents,' families and communities responsibility, while DSWT has answered the call for those who had no one to care for them at all, in the face of a mounting threat against the African elephant species, considering that without intervention, they would be extinct in a few short years.

    "Although his new game was quite funny, Oldepe’s antics did cause everyone a lot of stress. The Keepers worried where their charge had gone off to, and the other orphans paced and rumbled until he returned home. Fortunately, it seems that his love of hide-and-seek has now run its course, and Oldepe has remained firmly anchored to the rest of the herd ever since."
    Oh dear, well I'm happy everyone is now less stressed and settled. Thank you for rescuing him.

    Nothing like reverse psychology! Looks like he will mature into a handsome Bull elephant! My heart always goes out to the keepers when you can see how they struggle to pick up these elephants! It’s very different when the elephant is less than a month old. Having pulled muscles in my back a few times in my life I hope that it doesn’t effect them much. I was wondering if a forklift outfitted with a platform at the airport couldn’t be used when off loading the elephant to load it onto the truck?
