Today, Bob, Lizzie and I ventured off to the baby elephant orphanage and to feed giraffes the National Park 😊
Most of the baby elephant orphans in my photos lost their mothers to poachers. A few of the others lost their mothers to natural causes. The primary motive of these poachers is to collect the ivory in elephant's tusks.
