Just LOOK at all that TRUNK action everyone, makes me so happy! ;-} #elephantlove #bekindtoelephants #elephants #nopoaching #givegoodluck #elephantlover #trunkupwinesnapa #dswt #savetheelephants #trunkup ・・・ With a squeaky little trumpet, baby Sattao shows a warthog who’s boss! (#tbt, 2017) While his trumpet has now taken on a lovely baritone, three-year-old Sattao is once again the baby of the herd. On Sunday, alongside his pals Musiara and Dololo, he graduated from the Nursery to our Ithumba Reintegration Unit. He’s flanked by friends old and new — that’s him in the center, in slide 2 — who will support him as he embarks on his journey back to a wild life in Tsavo. _________ Video / Photo © Sheldrick Wildlife Trust #SheldrickTrust #DSWT #Sattao #elephant #kenya #whyilovekenya #adopt #conservation #bekindtoelephants #graduation #swtgraduations #throwback #cute https://www.instagram.com/p/CAfvPpyA6uW/?igshid=1y1rsfuzcpstc

The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust is doing live streams of feedings during the lockdown if you want to watch adorable baby elephants drinking from bottles and gnawing on branches and nuzzling each other. Very soothing, highly recommended.

Credit © 🎬 ✅ @sheldricktrust Sheldrick Wildlife Trust It’s only been three weeks since Sattao, Dololo, and Musiara graduated to our Ithumba Reintegration Unit. Everyone has been incredibly welcoming, but moving to a new home is a big step, and all three boys seem to really appreciate the supportive presence of Ithumba Head Keeper Benjamin as they become acclimated to life in Tsavo. At the Nursery, they ran the show, but now they seem rather star struck by older orphans like Lemoyian and Tusuja — and it’s easy to understand why, as they’re putting on an impressive display of their size and strength!

💖🐘💖🐘😙 adorable baby,it melts me. .! Credit : @dswt - At just shy of two years old, Sattao is one of the younger members of our Nursery herd — and as such, the older girls feel very protective of him. He is very friendly and likes to meet visitors during the public hour, but Tagwa does not approve of strangers interacting with her precious little bull: when he approaches the rope cordon where they stand, Tagwa plants herself between them and pushes Sattao back towards the other elephants! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We rescued Sattao when he was three months old, after he was found wandering alone and covered in predator bites. We’ll be caring for him until he’s ready to return to the wild — and you can help him on this journey this #DSWTfosterfriday.

OH NO BABY

and the incredible sequel from the best Instagram account ever:

It’s taken some time for little Merru to overcome the traumatic circumstances surrounding his rescue. The older orphans (like Sana Sana, pictured here) have played an instrumental role in making him feel welcomed and loved… but they’re not the only ones! Merru was recently hanging out with some of the other young boys when a group of impala came running in their direction. Knowing that this would give their new friend a fright, Emoli and Sattao valiantly chased the interloping antelope away while Maktao tracked down the mini matriarchs for backup. Everyone takes Merru’s comfort very seriously!

Such a familiar sight! Can't wait to get back and see our "kids" again in 2018! video via@dswt ・・・ Although they zoom home en masse (with a warthog or two in their wake!), each of the orphans in our care has a different bedtime ritual. Some, like Murit, start snoring practically the moment they finish their milk bottle. Others, like Esampu, sneak around and try to steal as many greens as possible. Musiara, Sattao, and the other babies bunk up with their Keepers, while big boys like Ndotto and Lasayen prefer to have their stockades to themselves. Luggard has even been known to put himself to bed, returning home ahead of the rest of the Nursery herd to have an early night! • This year, and every year, we’re committed to giving these different personalities the personalized care that they deserve.

#trunkupwines #bekindtoelephants ・・・ Any guesses as to what Sattao and Musiara are discussing? The little bulls are great friends, enjoying the attention and coddling that comes with being some of the youngest members of our Nursery herd. The only complicating factor in their friendship is Mbegu: Both are particularly smitten with the mini matriarch, and while easygoing Sattao is happy to share her attentions, Musiara gets very jealous and will chase away anyone (usually Sattao) that he thinks is getting too much of Mbegu’s time! • Sattao is this week’s #DSWTFosterFriday. He was just three months old (and alone, emaciated, and covered in bite marks) when we rescued him from Tsavo East. Now 15 months old, he is the picture of health and happiness at the Nursery.

She is currently at the Ithumba Reintegration Unit in Tsavo East NP, Kenya. 🐘 To the left of Malkia is Sattao who is a two year old male. Reason for being orphaned is suspected poaching. Sattao is still at the Nairobi Nursery. 🐘 Last but not least on the right is Jotto. This orphan was trapped in a well in Samburu. Jotto is a 3 year old male and resides at Ithumba Reintegration Unit in Tsavo East NP. 🐘 You can adopt one or all three of these magnificent elephants.

Funny! #trunkupwines ・・・ Sattao doesn’t like trick-or-treaters! During a recent mud bath, Sattao was most annoyed when he found someone encroaching on his snack space. His tiny trumpet and flared ears worked their magic this time, but the little bull should cherish this victory — warthogs aren’t usually so easily deterred! • To foster Sattao, click the link in our bio or visit: www.thedswt.org/sattao • • • Video © David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust #DSWT #Sattao #SattaoDSWT #elephants #whyilovekenya #kenya #nairobi #dswtnursery #africa #magicalkenya #savetheelephants #nairobinationalpark #saynotopoaching #racingextinction #jointheherd #DSWTat40 #worthmorealive

#trunkupwines ❤️ ・・・ And the mystery baby from our earlier post is… Sattao! Sattao had a tough start to the year – we rescued him in March, after he was found wandering alone, dangerously thin and covered in bite marks – but now his future is looking bright. He settled right in at the Nursery and enjoys being thoroughly spoiled Tagwa and the other older girls. When he got stuck during a recent mud bath, Tagwa and Malkia rushed to help him out in an impressively coordinated effort. They then proceeded to thwart his repeated attempts to sneak back to the mud pool, much to the little bull’s annoyance. As he’s realizing, all of this attention from the mini matriarchs can be a mixed blessing! • To foster Sattao, click the link in our bio or visit: www.thedswt.org/sattao • • • Photo © David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust #DSWT #Sattao #SattaoDSWT #elephants #whyilovekenya #kenya #nairobi #dswtnursery #africa #magicalkenya #savetheelephants #nairobinationalpark #saynotopoaching #racingextinction #jointheherd #DSWTat40 #worthmorealive #FosterFriday

YEAY, the story fast forward. Earlier, we shared Sattao's rescue footage. Fast-forward to today: He is a strapping nine-month-old and couldn't be doing better! He fits right in with the other little babies (particularly Musiara) and basks in the constant attention he gets from the Keepers and the Nursery's older elephant girls.
