Just a quick note to tell you all, that the Baby Elephant is doing well… at the DSWT orphanage… He had an interesting trip in the Helicopter!!! The full story will be out soon…
I am still on safari with our Spanish friends…Delayed by an elephant for one hour!!, in the Aberdare mountains yesterday, where we meet a fabulous bull Elephant, on the road… He had absolutely no intention of moving off the road… Wonderful experience for our Samburu men…

I Helen Douglas-Dufresne, have been doing walking camel safaris for the last 20 years in the Mathews-Ndoto region having witnessed the destruction of the Milgis ecosystem by the local communities who were unaware of its implications, either we did something or not- so the Milgis trust was born!

Thanks for the update, I think this must be Kungu, he is absolutely adorable and looks like he was rescued in the nick of time, although quite battered and bruised! There have been three little orphans is as many weeks, two look as though they are as a result of poachihng. One baby girl, Suguta was in a really bad way, hopefully in the long term she will be fine and her and Kungu will be best of friends I’m sure.
