September 6th

As soon as the orphans emerged this morning, Orwa, Teleki and Bomani enjoyed testing their strength against one another, Teleki and Bomani ganging up against Orwa who is the biggest Boy in the Nursery. Tusk size and strength count in such games, and the two younger Boys had to respect that and drop the challenge!

Kihari, Naipoki, Ishaq-B, Orwa, Teleki and Bomani were at the new elephant’s Stockade first thing in the morning, in time to see the Keepers removing the body of poor Saseni, who was taken for burial.
