Friendships look a bit different here ♥️ At face value, a hippo and an elephant might not have much in common – but no one’s told Bumpy and Wangalla! The adorable pair have fallen trunk over tail for each other. Both are orphans, and two of our youngest rescues at that. They will grow up step in step at our Kaluku Unit, until they are ready to reclaim their places in the wild. Find out how you can adopt orphaned animals like Bumpy and Wangalla for yourself or as a gift: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/o…

Rank your Thanksgiving sides, top three. This is a very important conversation.

Believers, pray for the workers who are canvassing abortion clinics in an effort to save the lives of the unborn and give the Gospel to the lost. Pray for their safety and the fruitfulness of their efforts.

Ever wondered what a newborn baby elephant looks like? Meet Mwezi! She was born under the light of a near-full moon in the middle of our Umani Unit. Baggy-kneed and covered in soft fuzz, she’s also covered in dust from head to toe with earth. Our Keepers rushed to help Murera cover her, which helps to mask her scent and protect her from predators while she is at her most vulnerable.

56 years ago today, Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song" was released as a single.

She had been used for breeding her whole life and had a massive growth when she came in. Today Nina was celebrating the all clear ❤️

43 years ago today, Rufus and Chaka Khan's "Ain't Nobody" was released as a single.

The tomb is still empty. The throne is still occupied. The Kingdom is still unshakable. Jesus Christ is still King.

Wonderful news: Murera has given birth to a baby girl this morning! Her daughter entered the world bathed in the light of a near-full moon, perfect in every way. We’ve named her Mwezi, which means moon in Swahili. Murera chose to give birth in her stockade, the place that has been her nighttime sanctuary all these years. Her delivery couldn’t have been more seamless – in fact, by the time the Keepers heard the rumbles and rushed to her side, it was all over! Mother and baby are doing very well, while Mwana is already proving to be an excellent and attentive big sister. More to come, but we're filled with joy and wanted to share Mwezi’s first moments with you. (Word is already out amongst the elephants – this morning, every wild-living Umani orphan showed up to meet the newest member of their family!) Congratulations to our extraordinary Murera: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/o…
