10:28 am
end of it. that story made me afraid of elephant d. i'm by any means because it was an event that had directly affected my family and they will if they should have the date 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 the we'll see what kind of sign baby
10:29 am
edison's onto course if, and they'll come and rub up again and you will touch. she says she can and that's how they bones. cool. if you're not around, they cry out because they need you. that's why i love this job because i've go and so you still living with them. emails with an hour the they only was entrusted with a little orphaned female cath, when the century opened in 2016, they named her chava. how do i? no, no, no. and so to ease into we and the one on a my i phones, i was like a little i ended up with this digital elephant and she got used to my presence invoice and really quickly had the pump put to and 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 and she
10:30 am
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 my the america, oh, it's a so would chavez 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, they're in shock, and they're sometimes wounded and vulnerable. the team works to create a safe environment to ensure the young elephants don't give up and die. isaiah or low? dingo has a degree in veterinary medicine from the university of tai robi. he's in charge of
10:31 am
rescues and 1st aid in the works closely with the san diego zoo wildlife alliance in the united states and invaluable partnership that provides expertise and infrastructure. he sadly has to rescue about one animal the month. the poaching and trafficking have thankfully decreased here in recent years, but accidents around watering holes, severe drought, and the natural deaths of their mothers, all threatened these vulnerable creatures. the 6 month old lo, patrick was found abandoned and severely dehydrated. he's very survival hangs in the balance. the
10:32 am
2 is also the colleen is constantly experimented since she joined 6 years ago. she tried a new approach to feeding the camps after just a few years. that's out there. like that and dizzy me. sarah, was the 1st elephant cost to be given fresh. goldsmith was set up and when we took
10:33 am
her in, sarah wasn't well, she had no strength and was always lying down 12 hours off to giving her this meal . she was strongly good, but she stopped having diarrhea stops losing weight because we only use good smoke . now we go through 600 leases a day. se system is quite a window of the century feeds elephant cost 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. i live in the
10:34 am
pauline, naomi, and their co workers meet with local farmers every morning to buy coke milk. the selling their milk to the sanctuary opens up new opportunities for the women of the simple route community. the my name's you know, i'm, i'm, i don't know whether that or i have so she goes in the volume when they, you know, would hear 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 when i
10:35 am
get you and the level and get a name and i. 2 the miss miller, when my husband used to say, like i said, he wouldn't share 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. but another the many of them get the best. yeah. and i buy and money and can do it to shopping. now i can buy clothes for my children and myself. he gets the milk allows me to and a living thing. i think it really helps me remember that if i did it for my that my nose, my motto works 3 hours every day to reach the meeting place. many of the other women
10:36 am
also spend several hours carrying their goats smoke to the marketplace. does not look no ma'am. well you didn't move, we call them 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 thing that we have at the bed doesn't do to to not we don't give money to the men, but this only to the women, not so that's why we called them new moment when i get them to the end of a scientist and as if we've done the milk mom is good 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
10:37 am
the mix quality is closely monitored because of its role in the cab to survival. come at the end of the sticker. i'm gonna come up, let's see, is it a center? it does apply to send over, even if you boil bad milk, you can still cause diarrhea in an elephant. cough. so when a cough has diarrhea, it's very difficult for it to recover. that's why we checked the mill taste and smell po, it's the best way to verify that it's good quality. but the, the, the 10 i'm a do the milk quality also depends on the temperature that day to do if it's very hot. the milk 10 saw by 11 o'clock in the morning and the milks temperature can
10:38 am
reach 35 degrees celsius. so more that, that, that the phase and the, the colleen and they only need to pass dry's the goats 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 the,
10:39 am
when the heat becomes oppressive in the wild mothers sheltered their young with their bodies and take them to watering holders they only in pauline fulfill that rule at the sanctuary, keeping their charges cool to prevent sunstroke and teaching them to stay hydrated the level continue to as high as the there's always something to do and it's always challenging for them. but one of my regular g cheese is to accompany the elephant. so my travels like when i follow the mouse in the bush, i sometimes stay close to that other times i may have further away who i think of as they get older, we gradually go our separate ways. so it becomes more natural for them to avoid human contacts, helping them. the keepers,
10:40 am
reassuring presence and supervision hoops, the cabs become more independent. essentially, these elephants are ever to be successfully released back into the wild goose will you inform you it's important that i where am i uniform at all times, especially when i'm near the elephant, who i think is they can more easily recognize us all under one. it this way is not uniform, is what i have before you go my own home. i mostly proud and happy to wherever it we way uniforms. like the men come. it shows that we work together and the way it equals many 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 is gonna be a good day. a
10:41 am
gina or is that 6 pm visa friends can hold the bottle and drink the milk on their own. the we and i told him what to do. his name is embodied to be a he was taken in and because he was found alone without his family. he was one months old from wood. now he's on full years old and kind of incredible comes to him. he's almost ready to go back to the wilds. he's a big teenage and now, and i did it with the foods that were trying to reduce the amounts of milk and make it less sweets than it was that the stones are. is it so he understands that it's time to stop necessarily cutting? yeah. quite losing it gradually. if he wants to drink the milk is much increased, they do it pretty much. it could be that says if his mother were winning him
10:42 am
a stumble. and as i say, i said you are who are american national level, regional long google load. ok 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, couldn't. he is one of the for 10 days, 8 rangers who patrol the sanctuary at night.
10:43 am
that's what might might be stopped at around 6 pm and make call rounds until 6. i happen to have some we check to see if any elephant semester or if any other animals to approach the century. one wasn't getting it. when we divide, when i, even when joe and m o g and keep him a t below, coolie patiently to the grounds together, ensuring the cab safety what that is. all i need more than we keep an eye on them because the animals we protect them and that's our, our most precious resources we watch out for predators like that's what we do here . what is good in the inter mall, out in the bush, and there are lots of hyenas, leopards, trim lions on these animals pose. a real threat this or
10:44 am
the some of their mainly looking for water up open. i want to cut them. they are drawn to the water here. pleasure, one of the out of the they can smell it from a far or a family. it's an echo and before it updates the water we give to our elephant cabs . and when the kids 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,
10:45 am
the, yeah, the, the, the, the, the okay, thanks, joe lang. tutors, off until i say a and the rangers who accompany him on rescues about trouble. elephant. elephant calf is apparently stuck in a watering hole. got gotten, getting somebody from a neutron view, a, a football in a cooler. and we've been told that the calf doesn't have any strength left to become a direct. 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 together. initially it was stuck there, there is water here again for the mother couldn't free her calf. anybody was
10:46 am
hovering around, but now she's left in the calf savannah elephant to use their tusks to dig for water. but that can get them into trouble. we were in the symbol real reason it was sandy soil becomes very loose during the dry season. right now. much the american uh, when that heavy animal like an elephant comes along its weight and stomping what can cause it to think the to, i mean, yeah, i'm not even the smallest ones over. what's funny because there's water in the sub soil in the sand, turns into quick sand and milk, and the elephant calves can get stuck on a, on a former co pay on chunk. let's go this way, the,
10:47 am
the child to close and they bought this could get dangerous. not a category. you stressed out, the elephant calf opened the left plus somebody. it was bigger than we thought the problem more cushioned. uh, really quick. its tasks were out, both of them were already measuring 10 centimeters. ok, so it's not really a calf anymore. 50 meter. if he's the only but i'm his work done. 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
10:48 am
know for the sign up 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 clement the course of what we are you associated with adding 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 his mother the after their 3 weeks at the sanctuary. naomi and pauline returned home to spend
10:49 am
a week with their families on the coming down the steps on august. then we may not find it. we will send over

10:53 am
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 turned to dust entire herds decimated by hunger and thirst. thousands of wild animals wiped out the train. you had 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 pits that small
10:54 am
