Nursery Unit  May   22, 2012 The morning was cloudy and wet following drizzling rain all night, so Kithaka and Barsilinga had to remain behind in their Stables due to the cold. The other Elephants missed them and Mutara and Tano kept returning to the Stockades to try and collect them. When the sun emerged, Kithaka was allowed out, but Barsilinga, who has been unwell due to teething, remained behind. Tano raised her trunk in the air before he came into sight, and she and Sities began running back to meet him, trumpeting. Everyone was attracted hearing the trumpet, and soon the entire herd joined them, greeting little Kithaka with enormous joy and excitement. He is dearly loved by them all.
