David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust

The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust is a small flexible charity, established in memory of David Sheldrick, famous Naturalist and founder Warden of Kenya’s giant Tsavo East National Park in which he served from 1948 until 1976.  It helps to Rescue the lives of orphaned Elephants and Rhinos. The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust Nursery, located in Nairobi National Park, is where an orphan’s journey begins — a journey that will culminate, many years down the line, in their reintegration back into the wild. The public visit takes place every day, except 25th December, from 11am to 12 noon.
