Zebra Bombi joined our orphan family after lions killed his mother and he narrowly survived. Gruff was only a few hours old when KWS rangers found him all on his own. It’s unclear why he was abandoned.

Now under our care, they receive the same dedicated attention as every other orphan.

Misinformation has long fueled fear and misunderstanding about wolves, but science tells a different story.

Share this to help replace fear with understanding and support wolf conservation.🐾 #mythvsfact #wolfawarenessweek

Lenny, Mwana, Zigi and Sulwe are the epitome of what we are working towards: elephant families living wild and free. When their mothers were orphaned as infants, our Orphans' Project saved them, raised them and returned them to the wild – where they're now nurturing this new generation.

This is Sonny. He would really appreciate some privacy. Knows he follows you into the bathroom all the time, but that's different. 13/10 (IG: seuun.x) #SeniorPupSaturday

The otters are at it again! A surfer at Steamer Lane was bitten on the foot by a sea otter (definitely not Steve) who then stole her board for 20 minutes. Officials aren’t sure if it’s the infamous Otter 841 or a bold copycat β€” either way, the legend continues πŸ¦¦πŸ„β€β™€οΈ

Natibu is Kaluku's resident timekeeper – he knows when milk bottles are due and races there at top speed! There's just one problem: he rarely beats Korbessa. She always claims pole position, leaving Natibu settling for second place despite his impressive sprint.

Busara has perfected the art of the soil scratch – dropping to the ground with complete abandon, wriggling against the earth as clouds of dust billow around her. The most spoiled of our 'Voi Kids' has come so far since her 2022 drought rescue, now luxuriating in daily dust baths.

Although classified as carnivores, wolves may sometimes follow an omnivorous diet. They can eat meat, eggs and even fruit!

This time of year, pumpkins are a special treat for our ambassador wolves.πŸŽƒ #wolffact

As Umani's youngest grandchild, little Zigi is growing up in a cocoon of love. He is so beloved, in fact, that the older orphan girls are in a constant battle of wits to be chief nanny. Ultimately, it means Zigi benefits from an entire herd of devoted carers ensuring his safety and happiness.

If you’ve been with us awhile, you’ll know all about β€˜hose wars’ β€” our Kaluku herd’s highly competitive and never-ending quest to possess the hosepipe. (There’s plenty of fresh water for everyone, but the orphans seem to enjoy the clout of drinking directly from the hose!)

Nyambeni has discovered that partitions are merely suggestions, not boundaries!

Our budding mini-matriarch scales the low fence with determination, desperate to reach the other side where her precious charges await. No barrier is too tall when there are babies to protect and comfort.

#WorldAnimalDay is a reminder that we open our doors to all wild animals in need.

Meet the full spectrum of orphans in our care; buffalo calves, zebra foals, and countless other species who receive the same expert guidance and second chances as the elephant orphans you are more familiar with.

From trunk to tail, every inch of Amali is coated in Nature's own sunscreen and insect repellent: mineral-rich mud. Umani's unique volcanic springs produce this distinctively dark grey mud. The orphans take advantage of the protection it offers in this heat, wallowing to their hearts content.

Little Moe is nearly one! Safe in the shadow of his mum, Mulika, this confident calf benefits from being born into a secure, loving family. A quarter of a century ago, Mulika arrived as a traumatised orphan – today she leads her own herd in the wild! Support families like Mulika's: swt.bio/mulika

These young friends have both incredible odds – Neshashi, rescued at three years old after her mother was shot, and Kitich, found abandoned in drought-stricken mountains. Now they are building strength and confidence together through play, and will one day roam the wild side by side too!

September showboating in Voi! Our orphan herd adores the camera and many members strike a pose when they see it focused their way.

Who’s your favourite showboat?
