Thirsty elephants | Sheldrick Trust

Water means life, but during the dry season in Tsavo, wildlife needs a helping hand. More than 60,000 litres are drunk each day by the orphans and their wild friends each day in Tsavo, aided by our teams who bring in water to quench their thirst. Watch the teams fill up the watering point, surrounded by wild elephants and ex-orphans who time their visit with the truck! Read more at: https://www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.or... 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.
