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.

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.

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.❤🐘🇨🇦

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.

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!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

Wow that was awesome That was the Absolute best documentary on elephants ever

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!! 🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘💗💖❣️💞

Elephants must be protected. No one needs to wear ivory that bad!

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!
