As they got there they found a wild elephant herd there which forced the Keepers to keep a distance. The orphans had a brief encounter with the wild group before following the keepers for their midday milk feed. At mudbath Edie’s group arrived. The young orphans were initially frightened by the surprise visit but soon settled and went over to meet the ex orphans. Laikipia had a soft spot for Siria, he played strength testing games with Siria letting Siria push him back despite Laikipia being much bigger and stronger. Sosian and Salama tried to interact with Siria but Laikipia took over and invited Siria for another strength testing game. Laikipia later went to try and woe Lesanju who showed no interest. Lempaute was most interested in Edie’s young calf. She kept trying to touch the baby as it was hiding under Edie. Mweya and Mzima spent time together playing and Salama played with Kenia.
