An entire year of the life of orphan elephants is captured on film, where we witness them grow up and be reintroduced into the wild. The film showcases the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and its breeding and rehabilitation station for elephants. We use never before seen footage that perfectly shows the coexistence of elephants and the highly emotional relationships that elephant groups maintain. The result is a spectacular look at the wonderful animals and their habitat.
We accompany the first steps of a two-year-old elephant who is just starting his release program. He strolls through the park with his herd, meeting all types of other animals. Along the way, he meets the cow elephants, which oversee the education of the young animals. They teach them how to protect themselves from the sun by using dust, how to find fire extinguishers, and how to swim in the rivers. We also observe the story of two young elephants in their first night in the wilderness on their own. Captivating film footage allows us to truly learn how elephants behave in the wild.

I've followed Dame Daphne Sheldrick for many many years and have annually adopted three elephants and a rhino for my grandkids. God bless them for the valuable life saving work they do.❤🐘🇨🇦
In a world of division hate and terror, there are still wonderful things happening. What a great place to donate a few dollars to these fabulous people doing such great work. God Bless them all.
No words enough to thank the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust for taking care of these baby orphans and give the species another chance to survive. Thank you for sharing! just beautiful. made my whole week.
Y6 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭@a@a
You said it perfectly!!
Really want to THANK THE HEAD KEEPER as he is doing a fine thing!
Absolutely disagree

This was magnificent- the wonderful care of these amazing beings- thank-you from the bottom my heart- an excellent documentary on every level, the footage, the music, the narration couldn't be any better. And the beautiful man in charge obviously has a heart of gold- a million times over- thank-you!!!
Without exaggeration, this is the first happy wildlife doc I've seen this year. Every other story is of desolation, ruin and despair (caused, as always, by us). So I was absolutely thrilled to stumble on this rare gem. Mad props to the Trust for creating this singular elephant resort and much respect to the dedicated, loving men that rear these orphans. What a wonderfully fulfilling life - they must have such inner peace. I'd love to do this work myself but that, alas, is not my path. Thanks for making such a lovely film.
Why would you be so thrilled. Maybe you were seeking something to watch ou of the sadness all around? There are so many reports and photos online and also videos of thousands upon thousands of elephants killed by terrorists just for killing, for poaching, and for meat. They also have a photo and video of piles and piles of dead elephants in Afghanistan, and in Africa. All of the whales are in very low populations. Few people know there are global killings of all animals happening, and in the USA it is the birds.
Um, ya. Exactly. It was a delight to see a video where it wasn't all about the killing and exploitation of these glorious creatures. Every other video tells that story - one that must be told and re-told. But this rare gem of human kindness is heart-warming and thus worthy of praise. Nothing more, nothing less.@@user-bi4sr2rw7b
@@user-bi4sr2rw7b This doc makes my soul happy. I remember in my early 20's in the 80's when I saw the cover of a National Geographic with an aerial view photo of a slaughtered elephant herd. Only the faces of the elephants were missing. There were young elephants and babies just standing by the others. That one moment changed my life. It's too bad that it took so long for sanctuaries and orphanages like this one to come about. Poaching in Africa has been reduced, and we are no longer in danger of wiping out elephants. It's still happening elsewhere, but younger generations can see at any time what horrible things are being done to wildlife, so curbing it doesn't take decades.
@@user-bi4sr2rw7b0😊
I agree. It's for a big part indoctrination, there's an agenda behind it. With this I won't say that there are not awful things happening, but the focus is always on that. Same like in the daily news, it's on and on about negative things, while there is hardly space for positive news. This is causing a negative mindset which is consequently leading to more negativity. While positive news lead to a more optimistic mindset from where it's much easier to get to a general more positieve outcome. We all want the same, but walk another path to get there❤
It’s just beautiful to see how some humans are putting in genuine effort to revive elephants, their population & the elephants trust back into humans. may these guys be blessed with a long and fulfilling life!
Thank you for highlighting the fantastic work the Sheldrick wildlife trust do to help rehabilitate Elephants back to were they belong. I have been a supporter of Sheldrick wildlife trust for many years but have just heard the sad news that one of the keepers has been killed by a wild bull Elephant his name is Patrick Muiruri. This shows how dangerous the keepers work can be, they are wildlife Heroes and I will always support them.
Am sorry to hear that. I love Elephants but I also wouldn't go near them out of fear. It takes special ppl. to do such a work, bless them all for it.
R.I.P. Patrick 🕯
My deepest condolences to the team & family of Patrick. It may help, that it was none of orphans & maybe the wild elephant null, was in mush?May Patrick rest in heavenly peace and his friends & family find healing and closure🙏❤
My sincere condolences go out to Patrick's family and friends. This is a wonderful Foundation and I'm sure he will be missed. Does anyone know if there is a fund set up to make donations to his family?
@@laurierice7687 yes there is its on the sheldrick wildlife trust web site
@@avivapadrutt7952Google the sanctuary slash Patrick for heartfelt account of what happened.
One of the great achievements in Africa in our times
Being an animal lover big and small, it's heart warming to see that we as human beings have finally realized how important it is to correct the destruction that we have done to the worlds population of wild animals and have the understanding that we can do something to help restore some of of the devastation that we are responsible for. Thank You David Sheldrick & Wildlife Trust for taking care of these baby orphans!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a wonderful documentary, highlighting the fine work of the David Sheldrick Wildlife Foundation. Thank you for the glimpse into the Elephants world. So sad to hear of one of the keeper/ helper's death. I wish for all the keepers health and safety.
Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Does anyone know if there is a fund set up to donate to Patrick's family? So very sad😢
@@laurierice7687Je l’espère aussi.
@@annickborys2465 Do you know if there is a fund donation set up for Patrick's family?
So outstanding job the guys are doing. Thank @David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust for their great works...🙏🙏
This is so lovely to watch Elephants in the wild as they should be no chains no hooks thank you one and all for saving these wonderful animals and given their freedom
thank you for reply and for caring for Elephants
Thank you to all the selfless carers that care for the infant elephants day in and day out! God bless your kind hearts, the time away from their families and the many thankless tasks that we never get to see or hear about!!🌹❤🐘❤
Wow that was awesome That was the
Absolute best documentary on elephants ever
the calmness of this man is astounding
Really astounding 😮
it's natural lazyness.
ह
@@ericastier1646imagine calling someone who looks after elephants as lazy.
@@cameronhowe1110 not only indolent but as irrefutably proven in Michael's Levin's book "race matters", primitive and evolved to a different brain and behavior prone to violence with recognized much inferior IQ and somewhat dangerous and without question troublesome if left to mingle outside its ecosystem.
Come back come back bigger and better and braver and more beautiful than ever.well done sheldrick trust and god bless the carers and keepers i cant believe that in order to survive we now have half elephant and half human herds roaming the savannah but if that's what it takes i would sacrifice my last year's to be a part of that xxx
Oh My God!,
ONE of the Best Documentaries i have seen in a While. What an Amazing Bond Between the Elephants and their Keepers, Well done, Keep it up Kenya🇰🇪
Beautiful - I sponsored an elephant at Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, featured here - I hope to combat the sale of Ivory in Asia in the future.
I don't know his name, but the chief caretaker really knows his business. He's patient he's logical this model, and bring back orphans as a group in natural environment is a wonderful model for reclaiming territory, and training elephants to be wild. This is a great documentary!
His name is Benjamin aka Benj 😊
The Sheldrick Orphanage is absolutely incredible with what they do!!! I didnt really know about Sheldrick until i came across this video. I watch a orphanage in South Africa but I will definitely be here from now on!! The team of people that are with Sheldrick are incredibly knowledgeable and have the elephant's safety first. I think it is awesome that some of the veteran babies still in the orphanage are allowed to go out and start living back in the wild as the elephant's choose to. You are such a awesome place and i will definitely be donating and telling everyone about Sheldrick!!! Thank you all for doing what you do for the elephant's!!! They are such magnificent animals and deserve to live worry free on this earth too!!! Hats off to you all and thank you for caring enough about the elephant population to work hard every day to keep these special animals in this world!! 🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘💗💖❣️💞
BIG THANK YOU TO HEAD! He has a very good voice and a fine man for doing this work.
Ddz*away s❤
Absolutely amazing work and compassion.salaam from India
What an absolutely amazing and beautiful thing to see❤😊….just loved the people and the spirit it’s inspiring in the 🐘elephants…..the orphans are just crazy beautiful and for them to win over the wild elephants 🐘 is just ssssoooo lovely a thing👍🏾……certainly should be recognised and awarded the “Earth Carers” 🏆🥇🏆🥇🎊🎉award!!!…..just loved it😇
Dame Sheldrick learned orphan elephants can die from a broken heart bc she went to her daughter's wedding & calf thought abandoned again. So she changes care takers so they dont just bond with 1. She also had to develop milk that was similiar to their moms. She is my hero or as Maya Angelou would say: SHEro. All of this was with trial & error & LOTS OF LOVE💜🐾💜 ELEPHANTS LOVE & GRIEVE I believe more than humans & I guess forgive bc look what humans have done to them & pollute earth! Thx for showing this video teaching of elephants souls.
What a magnificent animal, a big thank you to the keepers who feed them and love the elephants. And a big thank you to the soldiers who protect the elephants. Without all of you this would not be possible. ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊😊😊😊🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
Elephants must be protected. No one needs to wear ivory that bad!
This is not the only reason they're hunted, lookup uses of ivory in Asia... it's a problem, yes
@@Colourbash I know ivory is not just worn.
@@Colourbashit's still the same reason really and the reason is ivory, it doesn't matter what the ivory is used for, the point is they're hunted for ivory and there is no use of ivory that warrants the killing of these magnificent creatures, it's cold blooded murder if you ask me, killing for profit, it's just sick
Excellent doco, thanks guys, and to think 'people' pay big money to shoot and kill these wonderful creatures, I'm ashamed to be human sometimes...
Truly good work you people are doing may God bless you for caring for our Elephants
The work to rehab this orphan with sincere efforts is something to Respect.I have Special Respect for the Team...🙏
THANK Your ❤️❤️❤️
All this time I thought a dog was a man Best friend Lol 😂😂
I'm 74 yo now, but had I know about this reserve when I was younger I would have been there helping to save these magnificent, beautiful, and mysterious ♥️ animals... 🎉😊
I love the way the former X orphans bring their wild born babies back to meet, visit and seek assistance for their keepers. 😊
Am a loyal supporter of the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Loved seeing the beginnings of this beautiful wild place…..Ithumba. Thank you! Have been going every year since 2012. It is a special place…my forever gratitude to all at the Trust. 💕🐘💕
Just beautiful 🙏. The wonderful work of this organization is what we all need to support
This is amazing ❤ elephants are wonderful ❤
Pure joy! Especially in the mud!
🎉🎉Very beautiful and useful documentary film sir. nice to see. Wildlife is the basis of our life. Saving them is one of our biggest priority.Thanks for sharing.
I love elephants.
I have been in an elephant sanctuary in Thailand. They rescue and rehabilitate those that have been abused by people.
Cheng Mai? that place is also absolutely amazing
@@demi3115 : Agree 100% 👍
A feel good story. Thank you. 🙏
Amazing! Delightful! Refreshing! Wow! What A Beautiful and Wonderful Story! Sucess At It's Finest!!! Great Job! Applause Goes Out To These Wonderful Men Who Made This Happen! 👍👍👍👍👍
I love elephants. They’re very strong and intelligent.
These Beautiful Elephants Are So Happy!!!
🇮🇪 this is a magnificent documentary
I'm very happy that some humans got a very kind heart.
Amazing work. The future of Africa's wildlife rests with Africans. This warms the heart.
This was beautiful to watch and learn about the amazing elephants. I adore them so much the are truly incredible creatures and such love they have as a huge family. Thank you for taken care of so many and to save them from evil killers and increasing the population of extinction. This was such a lovely documentary.
Thanks loved it. This trust is a wonderful benefactor.
I just watched a video about the tragedy of Tyke the circus elephant, and this video was in the recommendations after. CZcams recommendations were out here protecting my mental health for once haha. I definitely needed to see good and happy things happening for elephants after that story. We need more places like this in the world.
ELEPHANTS ARE MY BEST FAVORITE ANIAL THEY. MAJESTIC GENTLE GIANTS
Baby elephants are incredibly fascinating creatures. They are known for their playful nature, close family bonds, and impressive intelligence. They are a symbol of innocence and the wonders of the animal kingdom, captivating the hearts of people all around the world.
Excellent video. One of the best I have seen from Africa so far. It was really heartwarming to see a so good development for the elephants. I have been in close contact with them and I love them.
Thanks GOD I live in KENYA 😅
Hope ur not in a drought & hurting from climate chg like USA is!
Thank you for this content & thank you for the caretakers of these elies. I just love them esp when the little ones run 😊
Yes thank you to these brave and compassionate people. You’re helping to save elephants in this territory for the elephants’ sake. You’re also saving them for the future of the earth and all creatures - humans, too. How impoverished would our earth be, and our children’s children if people such as these caretakers weren’t able or willing to protect and preserve these magnificent giants of the earth. Many thanks.
This is a marvelous documentary! Such good news that successful approaches have been carefully developed and recorded to show that rescue, restoration, and rehabilitation are happening both for wildlife and for their natural environment.
I saw in Africa a mother elephant carrying her dead baby 😢 It was heartbreaking.
Carrying? How?
Love this
This might sound bad but it's good. These videos help me fall asleep
It’s amazing how they form a circle around the little one. I have seen grown elephants do it in the wind when there’s a predator nearby. Truly beautiful! I want to thank the keepers for their excellent service & undivided attention to the project. And to all those who contribute money for their care.
Wow, wow & wow! What a beautiful & poignant documentary 💕Elephants are extraordinary beings with high EQ & sociocognitive skills. It’s time humans see all animals as an extension of our being & not as something that are less intelligent & savage. Immense appreciation to the elephants’ caregivers for their dedication, compassion & love. DSWT, what a magnanimous gift you have given to humanity 🙏 Each of us can choose to be better humans to our animal friends ❤️
THEY CAN PAINT A BOUQUET OF FLOWERS with their trunks also. Really well I might add. Dont know if Thailand makes them or they love to. Elephant uses all colors & shades with no hook.
@@spicyirwin5835They abuse the elephant until they learn how to paint. Please don’t support any elephant places that makes them work.
20.7.2023.First class,very good and best.
Wonderful documentary best I have ever seen and showing how right and courageous Daphne Sheldrick has been and for the perseverance shown by the loving and courageous keepers. You are all so wonderful and I pray that poaching soon is stamped out . Humans should treat the world like the keepers do and with love and emphindsomekeit♥♥♥
Bravo bravo! My Heart soared with love watching these wonderful human beings taking care of these elephants...and teaching us that love can heal. Thank you gentlemen for giving hope for Earth! ❤️
Excellent video 😊
I love 🐘 & I love all of these docs about the rescued 🐘 @ Sheldrick Wildlife Center. The, Head Keeper, Benjamin really is a good man, teacher and has sooo much compassion for each one of these babies. All the others do as well, but you can see why Benjamin has his position. . Thank you all for taking such great care of these awesome animals, thank you Daphne for continuing your husband's wonderful work after loosing him, This continues to keep his memory alive as I know you miss him so much. Thank y'all for your hard work sharing this with us for free.
BEAUTIFUL FOOTAGE
Thank god that we are care for them I so happy for them ❤❤
God bless these helping hands and elephants 🙏 I'm speechless 😶 🇰🇪 💞
A wealth of knowledge. Incredible work by all involved. Keepers are such special people, lucky elephants. It’s good to see humans giving back what others took away from these elephants. Would like to know what happened to the baby found in the mud?
God bless the keepers for this wonderful program. So glad the wild elephants are back.
This is so wonderful. I’m so glad that the keepers are so competent. It’s very distressing that it’s necessary to have this Trust but thank you God it’s available
hello ‘ I have no word to tell you thank you ❤ more than thank you for this wonderful video about my favorite creatures on earth ! no one day without watching them on any CZcams net sites. Sheldrick and The Herd are really my 2 favorites !!but your nursery is the greatest in the world 🌎 when I watch them I think to myself maybe one day, these orphan babies will miss their keepers and maybe keepers miss these adorable orphans ! these babies orphans have 2 cultures human and elephant !! sometimes they make laugh !!sometimes I cry 😢 it’s amazing ! they always will remember their keepers ! only elephants and Dolphins have this human connection ! thank you again ❤! sending cuddles 🥰 big hugs to all these treasures 💕🐘💕 from Paris ❤🇫🇷
Thank you kindly for what you doing for these little ones.
Merci beaucoup pour ce documentaire à couper le souffle !! Ces animaux si intelligents devraient recevoir toute notre attention, notre aide et notre Amour. ❤.
I wonder if the hand fed elephants are more prone to danger from poachers due to lack of fear of people?
African elephant ts are so magnificent!
Thanks for your story. Love those little guys
That little bitty one was just so happy rolling around in the mud, he could hardly contain himself!😄
The bull also watching all these beautiful ladies.
Words, rather emotions are the only way to express the gratitude for your everything at The Sheldrick care Foundation An inspiration and encouragement to the understanding and meaning of “Unity”. (Par Excellence at all levels🙏🏼🍀🙏🏼 🐘 🍀
beautiful documentary
I am so impressed by this park's work in returning orphans to the wild, by this we are saving our ecosystem in a world of only money making people.
thank you for doing this.bless all of you.larry in INDIANA USA
What a incredible thing you all have done..thank you for your time and sacrifice and devotion..
Excellent. Passed to a family with an eleven year old
I've always wanted to go do what you're doing Dave that I know I'll probably never have the funds to do it I do own a pair of Courtney boots so lol God bless you May the wind always be at your back from Indiana USA
Thanks for those elephant keepers
You are just a wonderful
Watching this makes me very happy, thank you.
Wow, I did not know that elephants can pass on knowledge so when an area is unsafe due to poachers the wild elephants know not to go there. Fascinating.
This is the most awesome documentary on elephants I have seen! Great job❤ would love to see more long videos like this! Does anyone know if there is a fund set up to donate to the family of the keeper who was killed? Many blessings
🙏💙🙏
They are so cute when they drink from the bottle
THANK You GOD 🙏❤️🙏
I absolutely adored this! Thank you!
The happiest job in the world❤❤❤❤❤
