The Elephants have all the same characteristics as us human Keepers. Today, Ishanga surprised us all by sneaking back to collect the two little babies, Kithaka and Barsilinga who had remained indoors due to the weather. We only noticed her absence when we heard her trumpeting from the Stockades as soon as the Babies were let out. She accompanied them out into the forest to join the others, rumbling when she came closer to alert the group, who all welcomed the trio with great joy. Today Shukuru allowed Balguda to suckle her little teats, as he does those of Kilabasi. He is very comfortable with both elephant “Mamas”!
