Day 2: Elephants and Giraffes

Today we visited the David Shelderick Trust to see the orphaned elephants that they look after. The youngest was 5 months old and the oldest was 2 1/2 years old. 

It was really sweet seeing some older elephants acting like a mini matriach when they heard the younger ones in distress, and amusing when one of the elephants did something naughty and ran off as a keeper told them off!

We also went to a giraffe sanctuary, where we fed giraffes and also had kisses with them (food between your lips)! 

We filmed everyone and the videos will be uploaded when we get back :)

We had lunch on a nature trail then went back to Wildebeest Eco Camp where we've been staying.

Tomorrow we'll be leaving early to head down to Tsavo  and the camp we'll be working at. We're really looking forward to meeting everyone and getting started!
