Three panel comic. Panel 1: a horseshoe crab watches as a variety of prehistoric creatures swim towards an ethereal light. An ammonite calls back to the crab, “come on, horseshoe crab! We’re all evolving!” Panel 2: the horseshoe crab stays in position and replies, “nahh that’s crazy” Panel 3: the horseshoe crab is superimposed in front of a future premonition: a rather miserable-looking human slouched in the glow of a desktop computer. The horshoe crab swims away and says, “good luck tho”

I don’t think a Hollywood script writer could even have dreamt up this ending for Sienna. From broken and alone on the streets of Thailand to her family life in Wales. All she needed was love ❤️

How she bounces away at the end without a lead will put the biggest smile on your face. She couldn’t even look at us humans 9 months ago now she has complete trust in her family on the beach. Look at her little jig ❤️

I've done a lot of rescues over the last few years. This has to be one of the hardest. To see her this evening is very heartwarming but she is very very 50/50. Please keep everything crossed for little Fluffy. I called her that as I dream one day she might be fluffy again

She couldn't move after being thrown from a car. Locals heard her screaming at night from over 100 yards away in pain. The end was near for little Skye. Just look at her now one month later ❤️

Why do our ex-orphans bring their wild-born calves home to the Keepers? After ex-orphan Yatta first made the pilgrimage many years ago, nearly every ex-orphan mother has followed suit. Meet our newest wild-born calf, baby Moon: www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/news/updates...

It is often said that good fathers lead by example. That is certainly true with elephants – older bulls are mentors, guardians, and founts of wisdom. Baby Saba (ex-orphan Sunyei's daughter) got sleepy and settled at the feet of a visiting bull. He happily stood guard until she was done.

1 Year ago I adopted Chance. She had been stabbed in the stomach and spent her life on the streets. She shows us all that no matter how bad things get in life there is always a way back for us all.

Bedtime for Bumpy! He approaches his room at a sprint, then – one little whir of the ears later – flops onto his mattress. A day spent cavorting in the water is tiring work, and our little hippo is more than ready for a good night's sleep. www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/bumpy

There's a dynasty unfolding in Kenya. The matriarch? Edie, an orphan we rescued in 1999 after she fell into a well and was abandoned by her family at first light when herdsmen arrived. Today, she is 27 years old and a mother of five – her newborn Enid joining Eden, Ella, Eco and Enzo.

15 days ago, Rocky came in as close to death as is possible for a dog to be. It has been a battle to get him back into shape but I think you will agree that he is looking fantastic.

One week with Bumpy! Like any baby, he sleeps deeply and often – especially snuggled up to his Keeper, with a tummy full of milk. Rescued last weekend after his mother died in a territorial fight, he now has a family with us and a wild future ahead. www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/bumpy

Meet Bumpy! This enchanting little chap was rescued over the weekend. This was Bumpy's first night with us, snuggled next to Keeper Simon. Simon put his mattress on the ground and the tiny hippo nestled by his side, swaddled in his cherry blanket.

The most beautiful relationship ever. A month ago little Maple Syrup had been stabbed in the stomach and her elderly owner reached out to us for help. Fully healed, maple syrup is back and it's the most beautiful thing you could ever see

A handshake hello from Kipekee! Kipekee was rescued in June in a near-skeletal state, having been without her mother’s milk for days. This footage, taken last month, shows she’s gained in strength, and her once gaunt cheeks are beginning to look almost chubby: swt.bio/kipekee

Zebra foals imprint on their mothers by recognising unique stripe patterns. When we rescued Bombi - orphaned after a lion attack - we dusted off our zebra coat so she didn't feel alone and knew who to follow. Peter's the primary carer to Bombi and Kaluku's other non-elephant orphans.

From tiny orphans in need to wild-living families, we support elephants every step of their lives. Elephant conservation is not the work of a moment, but a multi-generational commitment. To date, we have rescued over 300 elephants and welcomed 77 wild grandbabies of our Orphans' Project.

Years ago, a wild bull calmly walked into an Ithumba stockade — unusual behaviour that signalled something was wrong. He had an arrow wound on his ankle. Once help arrived, he stepped back and waited. He still returns now and then, just to check in. Read more: t.co/uFSPgDzmIq
