Three generations of elephants — alive today because of one life saved.
The female at the rear is Mulika, the mother and grandmother of those walking before her. We rescued her in 2000, after poachers left her an orphan. In 2011, Mulika gave birth to her first calf, Mwende — the second-largest here — followed by Mkuu (born 2020) and baby Moe (born 2024).
In 2023, Mwende made Mulika a grandmother — when she had a daughter of her own, little Mala!
We feel privileged to witness this ever-growing elephant dynasty flourishing in the wilds of northern Tsavo East.

Wow!! This whole speech is INCREDIBLE:
Richard Gere, "We have a bully and a thug who is President of the United States…
But it's not just in the US, it's everywhere"
"Authoritarianism takes us all over"
"We have to be vigilant. We have to be alert. We have to be energetic. We have to be brave. We have to be courageous"
"And everyone who is watching this.. We have to be willing to stand up, tell the truth, be honest"
"There's a place in all of our lives for basic kindness, for basic love, and understanding"
DAMN RIGHT.
RT so every single American sees this.
Today is hard.
Today is dark.
Today is scary.
But the fight for a better tomorrow doesn’t end today.
Today I feel gutted.
Today, tomorrow, or for however long it takes, I will grieve.
I’ll allow myself to feel that.
Then I’m gonna get mad as hell.
And then I’m gonna get to work.
