Lemeki’s story began in a river. Just a week old, she was spotted bobbing in the flood-swollen Mara River, carried far from her family by the powerful current. Today, Lemeki has traded the chaos of floodwaters for playful dips in her own “swimming pool”. Become part of her journey: swt.bio/lemeki

Talek’s early days are a mystery, but what’s clear is her courage. She was spotted alone in the vast Maasai Mara at just seven months old. Now, Talek is a polite little elephant — most of the time — but don’t be fooled by her size. Talek has a strong willed and a bold spirit: swt.bio/talek

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Chamboi, an endangered black rhino, browsing with Twiggy the giraffe — our resident ‘mother hen’ and social butterfly. Rescued as vulnerable orphans, brought into our care, and now growing up in a protected space, they have access to food, doting Keepers, and unexpected friendships: t.co/RNRO7wx54j

It’s Raha’s favourite time: nap-time! As a baby, Raha was attacked by predators, leaving her with a mutilated rear end and a host of veterinary challenges. Her journey has been difficult, but we’re so encouraged by her progress and constantly inspired by her determination: t.co/WuE6D7kU4U

Two years ago, a tiny orphaned elephant began trailing safari vehicles in the Mara, searching for company. That brave little girl was Talek — small but mighty, and full of determination. Since her rescue, Talek has become confident, a little bit cheeky, and adored by everyone who knows her.

Shujaa and Weka have taken their playtime to the next level — going head to head in a very special session: mastering the skill of walking backwards! Whether it’s manoeuvring in tight forest paths or a waterhole, knowing how to reverse is key. Of course, lessons quickly turn into games.

We rescued Chapeyu in February after he was speared, leaving him with wounds that could have proven fatal: He's been recovering at Voi ever since. On this day, Mbegu came to visit the herd and while he seemed (justifiably!) concerned that she might steal his stash of greens, he welcomed her company.

This is my hometown. Trump’s armed thugs are disappearing our neighbors off the streets without due process. Hey ICE, take your masks off and identify ourselves, you fucking cowards.
