conservancy is one of kenya's, most pristine nature reserves. and after decades under thread elephants are finally finding some piece on the cesspool, lands they share with the assembly people. today the semi nomadic herders are determined to protect the wilderness and this wild life, especially the elephants. getting on up 1st, it was a bit strange and frightening the elephant, the wild animals and can be dangerous to some boys found it. the rich the elephant sanctuary to take an end to care for a band and or injured elephant calves. naomi let them go and pauline laid already on our keepers at the sanctuary. they help give the camps an opportunity to survive and the wild retreat dialysis as if they were out own children when a number. but that's a growing challenge. droughts are increasing least threatening their very existence,

pastors are drying out water shortages. we can live stock and wildlife the fates of the country. it's people and it's animals are inextricably linked to edward t. t. naomi, pauline, end of their community are working tirelessly to ensure of future for every one the in northern can use. some bo county, as in the rest of africa, cultures have pushed elephant populations to the brink. over the past 3 decades, the animals are killed for bush meat and the ivory trade. and the alarming decline of these giant are before us has even led to environmental degradation. but the

local assemble rule population united in 1995 to create of local conservancy to guarantee the protection of its species and ecosystems the thing named it. number one. yeah. which means less it place the pneumonia, then created an elephant sanctuary in 2016. that's unique in the country. the return the sanctuary is run and managed by the community rescued. elephant cabs had previously been transferred to nairobi over 400 kilometers away 2 days or sanctuary. provides care locally and gives them a chance to return to their natural habitat. retents, he has no rescued more than 60 elephants. re introducing 23 of them into the wilds

. the sanctuary staff all come from the simple real community home to more than a 1000 families scattered over 350000 hector's naomi's i shall go, answered the call to work at the sanctuary. deanza richie was looking for a man and a woman when they opened or what the lead on. they said they needed to recruits educated people not. and i just finished my studies are now i doing on this. i'm the community eldest, selected me because i was a high school graduates who was and use a level, was a looking at the i was the 1st woman to be recruited at the retained to century do some of the ones that are that she and her husband benson leave a few 2 hours away. no, i'm leaving my family for 3 weeks to go in one because

the community. she started working at the sanctuary. 2 years after it opened the, it's an 8 hour drive from her village. she to beams her family for 3 weeks at a time. the by projecting ellison's, their community is following a new approach to conservation. one that benefits both people and wildlife. the cembura want to build a better future for themselves by focusing on education and empowering women. the sanctuary was the 1st in the country to employ a female elephant keepers. or the return of the elephant sanctuary lies on the eastern edge of the num we conservancy

. nestled in the foothills of the matthews mountain range from a nearby forest as home to a number of species. and the immense territory is now home to the country. second largest live in population. the sanctuary is funded by simple ru county, private foundations, and the can your wild live service. the government agency is in charge of nature conservation. more than 100 people work here every day. looking after the i live in so round the clock, including the 10 female ellis innkeepers. the pauline studied food sciences engine nutrition at the university of nairobi and she's in charge of one of the sanctuaries, most important activities,

preparing the milk. that's a central to the elephant camps. health they're feeding schedule determines the rhythm of life at this sanctuary. the 40 young elephants need a bottle every 3 hours, even during the night. that means at least $320.00 bottles have to be prepared every day, the message and i find out from a phone, danial eco plus a 100. we waive the milk form, you know, which is already being mixed. as supplements when we insure the formula isn't too harsh or too cold. we add nutrients according to the animals individual, may i run venue, debit, apples. and as i can easily can supplement these on the blue coast, carbohydrates or proteins if necessary and gives us

a night at the . busy the,

the elephant kept slipping, 3 groups according to their size, small, medium, and large. each 2 liter bottle is prepared according to the group. they belong to. different animals have different nutritional needs depending on their age and development. the . busy the main the smallest scabs are carefully weighed every morning. pauline school is to ensure they gain at least 2 kilos a day. she keeps a close eye on vodo kendrick. the latest arrival.

even the slightest error in the new tree and dosage can have serious consequences. she constantly adjusts the formula for each elephant when that is a thing in a white med dylan. this is very important. the provost that's living bacteria in the face, very good, the digestive system, and also help combat blushing. what types of what the yeah, i'm waiting. this is the ring apologize. it's the only source of protein. so the youngest comes up on a protein. nice. i mean it's a neat, we call this a 3 sold source, a moment here we have fresh water. but elephants drink a lot of salt water, what if we don't give them? so most of them will be released from them. they won't treat the salt or did they find to the one i put on my desktop? let's say, is that to nicole?

it is very important for the healthier truby. no, of course if we clean. yeah. and i said yes. we do sell. other supplements include honey molasses, foods, bell bout fruit, coconut and spirulina. the pompeiian is still the only one here who possesses this specialized knowledge, making her one of the sanctuaries most valued assets. couple of days for renewal. you called to me about that, but before the retakes you sex reopened. i never imagined that one day i'd worked with elephants. at 1st it was strange and scattering mobile, but most of the books and the number is an aunt on my father's side, was killed by an elephant while she was carrying a baby on her back. bobo, now the elephant thankfully, didn't killed

a baby. the welcome william took them bobo. i know that that story made me afraid of allison to see on my knees because it was an event that had directly effected my family. i knew them. if they should have done accommodate the, the most recent arrivals are still babies themselves. naomi is particularly attentive to them. they have often had close brushes with death. she watches them every day from 7 am to 6 pm, observing their behavior and feeding them from. but we'll see what kind of sign

maybe edison's onto course if they'll come and rub up against you will touch you and she can. that's how they boned cool. if you're not around, they cry out because they need you. that's why i love this job because i've go ahead and so you still living with them. emails with one of our the new me was entrusted with a little orphaned female calf. when the century opened in 2016, they named her chava. how do i know? and so to even do we handle the diploma county, my info's on municipal, i ended up with this digital elephant and she got used to my present course and voice really quickly. 85 pounds, but then she began to accept me i'm it's so much so that when i went away from her

for awhile and then came back to me, she would sniff me touch me and caress me and make sounds as if i will have maza elephant cubs memorize your voice and you will smile. they never suggest it's even 10 years later at the my, them yeah, cool. oh, it's a so would chavo still recognize they owe me. she was released back into the wild 4 years ago. 2 when new comers arrived there, traumatized by the loss of their mothers, there in shock, and there's sometimes wounded and vulnerable the teamworks to create a safe environment to ensure the young elephant don't give up and die. isaiah. oh no, no danger. has a degree in veterinary medicine from the university of di, robi,

he's in charge of rescues and 1st state. he works closely with the san diego zoo wildlife alliance in the united states, and in valuable partnership that provides expertise and infrastructure. he's sadly has to rescue about one animal them on the coaching and trafficking. have thankfully decreased here in recent years, but accidents around watering holes, severe drought, and the natural depths of their mothers, all threatened these vulnerable creatures. the 6 month old logo, patrick was found abandoned and severely dehydrated. he's very survival hangs in the balance to the

level 2 is also the colleen is constantly experimented since she joined 6 years ago. she tried a new approach to feeding the cabs after just a few years because of my been busy me sarah, was the 1st to elephant cough to be given. fresh goat smell was set up and when we

took her in, sarah wasn't well, she had no strength and was always lying down 12 miles off to giving her this meal . she was strong again, but she stopped having diarrhea and stopped losing weight. but we only use goats milk. now we go through 600 leases a day. say, sickness plan, you know all the century feeds ellison cops this way. we're the only century using goats milk. milk is available near the sanctuary and it's become a godsend for rescue baby ever since the the,

the bullying naomi and the co workers meet with local farmers every morning to buy a goat milk the selling their milk to the sanctuary. opens up new opportunities for the women of assemble root community. the my name's you know i'm, i'm, i love regina is that awesome? i have so she goes in the monday, you know what? here where we live, we don't oh no. who met and when my husband was nice it's my children. i die to look off to the guy maggie, you will not the one getting in. 2 the

miss miller, when my husband used to say like i say he wouldn't shed the money with me what but now things are different because we have all right. milk milk is mine because i'm the one who's selling it from the menu. yeah. but i can get the best. yeah. and i buy and money and can do it to shopping that now i can buy clothes for my children and myself. he gets a milk allows me to and a living thing. i think it really helps me number direct, private, and some of them the motto walks 3 hours every day to reach the meeting place. many of the other women also spend

several hours carrying their goats milk to the marketplace. with no, ma'am, well, you didn't move. we called the milk mamma is going to come because it's the women who knew the goats let them. they bring the milk and the money out to is to our collection vehicle and we pay them now and then let them back up them. i'd be good to go now, but the to not me how at the but doesn't do that tonight. we don't give money to the man but this we need to the women not. so that's why we call them new moment when i get into it. and then if i send it in as a food stamp, nicholas on the milk mom is get about $1.00 euros for each of the 10 leaders. they show every day the money is paid into the women's own bank accounts, giving them a new source of independence. the

a, the, the mix quality is closely monitored because of its role in the cab to survival. come, begin to, because i'm not coming up. let's see, is it a center? it does apply to send over, even if you boil bad milk cans to cause diarrhea or in an elephant cough. so when a cough has diarrhea, it's very difficult for it to recover. that's why we check the mil taste and smell the it's the best way to verify that it's good quality. but the, the, the 10 i'm a do the milks quality ok, depends on the temperature of that day to day if it's very hot. the milk 10 saw your own by 11 o'clock in the morning,

and the milk temperature can reach 35 degrees celsius. so more that, that, that the phase and the, the colleen and they only need to pass dry's the goat smoke at the sanctuary. but time is not on their side, it's an hours drive and they can't just go faster because then the milk would get chicken up too much the. but pauline's new formula is a clever invention. one that both cuts the sanctuaries, annual cost and eliminates the need to import can develop from abroad the we have a loss of note today when

the heat becomes oppressive in the wild mother's shelter, they're young with their bodies and take them to a watering hole. this they only in pauline fulfilled that rule, that the sanctuary keeping their charges cool to prevent sunstroke and teaching them to stay hydrated the level continue to last night because the there's always something to do and it's always challenging for them to one of my regular g cheeses to accompany the elephants on that travels. like when i follow the mouse in the bush, i sometimes stay close to that other times i move further away. what then go as they gets older, we gradually go all separate ways so it becomes more natural for them to avoid human contacts, how be met them. the keepers,

reassuring presence and supervision helps the cabs become more independent. essentially, if these elephants are ever to be successfully released back into the wild goose, little uniform you, it's important that i where am i uniform at all times, especially when i'm near the elephant to us because they can more easily recognize us ollander who made his way as in that uniform in mid flight before you go my own, the facade, i mostly proud and happy to wherever it we way uniforms. like the men come and it shows that we work together and the way it equals any school. because so away from the main enclosure surrounded by thorn bushes. another enclosure is for older elephants between 4 and 7 years of age. but it doesn't be a good deal. i don't want to go no more to

the juniors at 6 pm. visa, friends can hold the bottle and drink the milk on their own. the we and i told him, what did you his name is embodied. you know, he was taking in it because he was found to learn without his family. and he was one months old. now he's on full years old and that kind of incredible comes to him . he's almost ready to go back to the wild. he's a big teenage and now and i did it with the foods that were trying to reduce the amounts of mill, couldn't make it less sweets than it was at the start of his it. so he understands that it's time to stop necessarily cutting. yeah. by diluting it, jason, just as they want to drink the milk as much increase, they lose it pretty much because this is if his mother were winning him stumble.

and as i say, i do a cool racket. i'm not sure if the limo regional long google load. okay. jack. the names are all inspired by the places where they were rescued. naomi and the other keepers are preparing the bigger elephants for their release back into the wild. a long term project that can take more than 5 years. the, the sanctuary is located in the heart of the bush and many dangers lurk in the shadows beyond its confines. jerry seemed like when he is wondering for it, teddy's 8 rangers, who patrol the sanctuary at night. well, now that's with that's what we can. we might can,

i might be stopped at around 6 pm and may call rounds until 6 am. and as we speak, we check to see if any of them is okay. or if any other animals have approached the century or them, i think you know and will be there. but when i, even when joe and m o g and keep him a t below, chloe patiently to the grounds together, ensuring the cabs safety martin, we keep an eye on them because the animals we protect and that are our most precious resources we watch out for predators like, that's what we do. okay. who is good enough to be on the internet was not out in the bush and there are lots of hyenas, leopards and lions on these animals pose a real threat. this or the

some of their mainly looking for water up open. i'm going to cutting. they are drawn to the water here. pleasure. when i put the out of gum, they can smell it from a far fam, which is an echo. and before it updates the water we give to our elephant cab. so we begin with droughts increasing and frequency and intensity. many watering holes are drying up the sanctuary supplied regularly by tanker trucks, making it a target for predators. the but everyone is now rallying to save. the defense having realized the importance of the largest land animals, the,

the, the, the, the, the, the, okay, thanks, joe lang, hooters? off until isaiah and the rangers who accompany him on rescues about troubled elephant. elephant calf is apparently stuck in a watering hole. somewhere somewhere near to imbue uh a foot by then a cooler and we've been told that the calf doesn't have any strength left to become a dr. i'm a vet and i've come to evaluate the situation and provide the elephant with water and glucose to help it regain its strength. when i go down, well then we'll try to find the mother and re unite the pair. their mama could you remove the initial i was stuck there, there is water here. he's again for the mother, couldn't free her calf. everything was hovering around, but now she's left in the cab savannah elephant to use their tusks to dig for water

. but that can get them into trouble. we were in the symbol real reason, the sandy soil becomes very loose during the dry season. right now, much the american uh, when a heavy animal like an elephant, comes along with its weight and stomping what can cause it to sing it to me. now, i'm even the smallest ones over by chance because there's water in the sub soil in the sand. it turns into quick sand and it can be elephant cab's can get stuck on a, on a former co pay on chunk. let's go this way the

which out to close and i bought this could get dangerous. right now i've got to go, you stressed out the elephant calf, open the left plus somebody, it was bigger than we thought it from. one more question to relate to what it's tasks were out. what type of what already measuring. 10 centimeters. ok, so it's not really a calf anymore. offense. give me call me if he's the only but i'm for the team must be absolutely certain that the mother hasn't abandoned him. the welfare of the herd is paramount among matriarchs, sometimes at the expense of its weakest members. did you see him, the, the, the

and that's what i found out with somebody in the media. and i was able to make sure the calf wasn't turn, which is reassuring mobile incidents like this are bound to happen again and again with the as the environment and the climate change development climate. not because i won't be a jo cc to godaddy who water remains a challenge for everyone. animals and human. so like the quest for it increasingly leads to accidents all ended well this time the elephant calf was healthy and was reunited with its mother the after the 3 weeks at the sanctuary, naomi and pauline returned home to spend

a week with their families. the are coming down to one of the summer because when we leave me in a fine, you mean we will send over following up on this and i my family really appreciates

what i do. the whole family eats well because of my job anyway. when i go to town, i come back with potatoes, vegetables, tomatoes, run in, and fruit like mine goes and i knew that to go online. i know under this as another foods column and then and dizzy are doing. i mean, are we going to use it when i return? they know they going to eat vegetables from the city because not only is back and what they're saying, what things are on the plan. yeah, mothers and know, tell us when we were young, we went to that to do anything on. all right. you haven't and much back to nowadays and the for someone to come and i can now talk things over with my husband to send me today. if we want to sell some goats, we discuss it. and once they've agreed, we make the sale together for more than now you're going to pauline is returning to her village per family is settled in the hills,

the river the men in her life has been excellent role models. her husband celia slap we a p. we is actively involved in the risk type, the sanctuary project, the her father, jason. the area on was a school principal who devoted his life to education and did everything to ensure his children could attend to university. they still are respected community leader and was elected to the pneumonia conservancy is board of directors the the, the, and mumble equal you man. so when you can apple. wiley,

the 1st notice of climate changes need occurred in the 99 take signs according to can 1st name ryan full of against the decline as yeah. then came that he's on this continue to rise when i get them windy the and there's a pro and them all boxed up and give me can well imagine that the cannibals will disappear. mind the people will leave in search of places where they can survive in our mutual go go. how about they many could leave to settle in cities. i'm going to get them by it was the is the next generation. and that needs to consider the climate change for vegetation them of but i'm the animals we depend on the zip to the po and no one way move, but they get mills. i saw a minute this winkie. no ego, another kind of wines of what we need the young people in our community in case you

guys use good conservation practices to make a self sustaining within the decade. well on that they give me a visual meal. but that's a huge challenge. given the size of the changes they face for years naomi, pauline and their community have witnessed the devastating impacts of water scarcity. every day. pastors turn to dust entire herds decimated by hunger and thirst. thousands of wild animals wiped out the train. you experienced an unprecedented trout in 2022 after 4 seasons of insufficient rainfall. the intruders reassured themselves by singing while they dig deeper and deeper for water for their live stock. sometimes more than 4.5 meters deep creating kits that small

animals can accidentally fall into the of the no more than never the return to the sanctuary efforts to rescue elephants will require support from government partners, visitors, and donors. the team can thankfully point to its encouraging successes to attract new donors. being re introduced 23 orphaned elephants into the wild since 2019 the very least into a protected area bordering the pneumonia conservancy. the

it's been 3 years since they only saw chava or 1st foster elephant, the 7 and then it shuts out. it looks like she's been crying. yes, it does. every one it protects. he has fought hard to give the 7 year old survivor a 2nd chance to live with her family. tracking them is mission because language is mission. the cabs are fitted with the gps colors that pinpoint their location. in the late afternoon when the elephants are most active, the monitors their health and observes their behavior. beautiful mission in this media center, due to the information we gather, helps

a lot from that. we check that our elephants are doing well with the, especially when the dry season is particularly tough. when conditions or some we install water points, we're kind even pull it out, seem to help all the animals in the when, when you know, if it's excited to come, even as, let's see where they were this morning. or did they drink anything? let's look the why do you know what we should soon be able to release the bigger elephants such as that at the ritz ac sanctuary under which they need to return to the wilds to you can tell that happy because they're making those sounds. i'm happy to see they're in such a good shape. it's really touching place on the

naomi police and their community are determined to protect elephants. despite the constant challenges every day, their work is a delicate balancing act that could crumble at any moment. the, these pioneers of community conservation. no, they'll have to keep fighting, to preserve their precious natural resources and secure the futures of both humans and elephants. the

the world lets me tell you we, we are happy that we are back to the story. we have a, getting a visa is more difficult than finding gold. what's that to you? for? for the present in the stories and issues that are being discussed across the country. news africa. in 30 minutes on the w. actually ride road and
