David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust Elephant Nursery

This famous wildlife sanctuary rescues and rehabilitates orphaned elephants and offers you the chance to see these lovable creatures up close. This is where the youngest elephants are hand-reared until about two or three years of age, and you can watch the keepers bottle-feed the babies. From the sanctuary, staff relocate the elephants to a reintegration center in Tsavo East National Park before they are eventually released back into the wild.
You can watch the playful pint-sized pachyderms wallow in the mud or nudge a soccer ball around is something you will never forget. You can also be helpful to the magnificent animals by adopting an orphaned elephant, giraffe, or rhino before you go, and you’ll receive regular updates on its progress .The nursery sits right at the main gates of Nairobi National Park, which makes it convenient to visit
