WOW!! That was a close call at the Kabini reserve in Karnataka today.😳🥴 turn up the volume to hear the young bull 😡 trumpeting 😡 furiously!! Elephants and indeed all wildlife are sick and tired of humans constantly encroaching into their space.
STEREOTYPY IS COMMON in captive elephants. They sway and bob to soothe the stress and boredom that is within them day in and day out. Tonight, 09/29/17, Nosey the elephant sways and bobs in her small enclosure inside the Kewanna Fall Festival in Kewanna, Indiana. Protests are scheduled for Saturday and Sunday for Nosey, who has been kept alone in an abusive circus for over 3 decades.

Elephants vs cars.

The love of an elephant mother who did not give up even though her baby elephant died 😢😢
Even in the case of an animal, the love of the child and the love of the mother are the same❤️❤️
Happy Father's Day. Celebrating the father figures and male mentors whose wisdom, patience, love and protection help shape us.
It’s said a good father leads by example, is supportive and loyal, and teaches valuable life lessons. Far from being limited to the human world, these are all character traits we’ve witnessed in elephant society too!
Once pigeon-holed as boisterous, aggressive or lone rangers, in our experience, magnanimous mature bulls play a pivotal role in passing on an accumulated wealth of knowledge and skills, including social and ecological wisdom, and even look out for the young and vulnerable. From shepherding orphan infants through the wilderness
Alamaya is an elephant who definitely prefers face-first interactions. This is something Kiombo learned the hard way recently, when he tried to instigate a game. Poor Kiombo made the unwitting mistake of reaching out to touch Alamaya’s rear end with this trunk, resulting in the bigger bull whirling around and giving him a sharp shove down a slope!
Alamaya is a little self-conscious over this part of his body, as he lost his tail – and more – in a hyena attack as a calf. In fact, when he was rescued, the damage was so severe, it was not entirely evident if Alamaya was female or male.
While his injuries are all healed now and he encounters no physical problems as a result, he remains very sensitive over his tail stump – and woe betide any of the orphans who dare to draw attention to it!
Thankfully, for Kiombo, his beloved Sonje came to his rescue, comforting him following his gaffe, but we believe he has learned his lesson for now and will approach Alamaya from the front in future.
(🔊) Wish our rescues a happy World Elephant Day and gift them something they love more than anything in this world... milk bottles! 🎁
Our goal is to help secure milk bottles for all the Reteti elephants for the month of September.
With 40 rescues, and each drinking 240 bottles per month, that is a total of 9,600 milk bottles.
