“To be a baby elephant must be wonderful. Surrounded by a loving family, 24 hours a day — I think it must be how it ought to be, in a perfect world.”
– Daphne Sheldrick, Founder of Sheldrick Wildlife Trust

To spend time amongst elephants is to witness the truth in Daphne's words — life revolves around babies in a hustling, bustling cocoon of love. In this edition of Field Notes, we visit the ‘perfect world’ of Umani Springs, where four babies born to our orphans have woven the most incredible family.
