Kauro, Namalok and Sapalan move to Ithumba | Sheldrick Trust

In early December 2017, the big boys of our Nursery Kauro, Sapalan and Namalok made the journey to our Ithumba Reintegration Unit to begin the next stage in their reintegration journey. Weighing close to a ton each, the trio were loaded into our ele-transporter truck and soon, were on their way to their new home.

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.
