Every morning infant orphaned elephants at the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust's Nairobi Nursery head out into the forest of Nairobi National Park.
Taru Carr-Hartley, Dame Daphne Sheldrick's eldest grandson, captures this morning routine; taking us on a tour of the forest and up close with the orphaned elephants being cared for by the Trust.

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.
