Reposted from @saskia_246 - The chairman of our German NGO @rettetdieelefanten is currently in Nairobi and visited the Sheldrick Nursery today. There he catched Ambo in the act who sneaked into Daphne‘s garden. As if Ambo knows that’s one year today that wonderful and inspiring Dame Daphne Sheldrick passed away. Thank you Daphne for making such a difference for conservation! And thank you @sheldricktrust Team for continuing Daphne’s life’s work! #swt #daphnesheldrick #kenya #nairobi #davidsheldrickelephantorphanage #elephantnursery #elephant #elephants #ambo #savetheelephants #jointheherd #legacy #neverforget #neverforgotten #memories #inmemoriam #lifeslegacy #lifeswork #remember #alwaysremember #remembering #ngo #rettetdieelefanten #rettetdieelefantenafrikas #inerinnerung - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/BwK_lW8BtMZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nu3xczwou5uc

Weekly Roundup December 31 - January 6

The first blog of 2019 is short and sweet. 

Unveiling our new logo – honoring elephants and the Sheldrick family

“Dame Daphne Sheldrick, the founder of The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, expressed the wish that we be known as the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. We are proud to make this change with the introduction of our new logo, with the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust name now acting as a tribute to both David and Daphne Sheldrick, and their lifetime of work as guardians of Kenya’s wild animals and lands. It also reflects the leadership torch being passed to their daughter, Angela Sheldrick, and the direct involvement of a number of other Sheldrick family members in our work.”

We save life. We give life. We protect life.

AI-equipped cameras will help spot wildlife poachers before they can kill

“In Serengeti National Park in Tanzania, for example, there are just 150 rangers responsible for safeguarding an area of land roughly the size of Belgium. A new solution to this proposed by conservation nonprofit Resolve is to use AI-equipped cameras to act as remote lookouts. Today, Resolve announced a new custom-made device called TrailGuard AI, which uses Intel-made vision chips to identify animals and humans that wander into view. The cameras will be placed on access trails used by poachers, automatically alerting park rangers who can check up on any suspicious activity.”

“In partnership with the National Geographic Society and the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, Resolve hopes to deploy TrailGuard AI in 100 reserves and national parks in Africa, starting with Serengeti and Garamba.”

Nine years ago, I first met Dame Daphne Sheldrick as well as 7-week-old Kibo. I adopted Kibo & have had the privilege of seeing him several times over the years, including last year at Ithumba where he lives as a wild Elephant thanks to the tireless work of Daphne, Angela & the incredible staff of the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Daphne is now resting in peace knowing that her work will continue for countless years ahead. #daphnesheldrick #dswt #elephant #endangered #kenya #africa #jwrimages (at The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust)

If you like to read I can't recommend this book highly enough. As a fellow African living in a time of extreme change in South Africa (once again). This book was both profoundly sad and very joyful. One cannot but admire and respect the love, persistence and sheer determination it must have taken "to mourn and grieve, as one must, but then to turn the page and focus on giving to the living". For those who prefer a movie don't miss PBS's Wisdom of the wild.

Los pelitos y las orejotas de #NASEKU #amorbonito 🐘♡ La fundación The #DavidSheldrick Wildlife Trust, creada hace 40 años por #DaphneSheldrick en honor de su esposo, uno de los grandes naturalistas, conservacionistas y expertos en elefantes, concentra su actividad en encontrar los elefantitos que resultan huérfanos por culpa de la caza furtiva en #Kenia, trasladarlos a una guardería en Nairobi y luego cuidarlos durante 10 años para garantizar que puedan volver a la vida silvestre. Los cuidados son muy especiales, como por ejemplo alimentarlos con una fórmula de leche adecuada y acompañarlos durante las 24 horas (incluso, cada elefantito tiene un cuidador asignado que lo vigila y pasa la noche con él). Además de manejar este hermoso y conmovedor orfanato esta fundación tiene actividades muy agresivas en la prevención de la caza furtiva y la atención veterinaria de elefantes heridos. 🌱 Si quieren ayudar y apadrinar a uno de estos pequeñitos (desde USD 50 al año) pueden entrar a www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org🌱 Photo : @dswtfosterparents @elephant_news_network @orphanedelephants Caption @mauriciosojo #fosterfriday #elefantes #elefantitos #huerfanos #orphanedelephants #fosterparents #cameranotguns #iworry #banivory #nopoaching #nohunting #ayuda #veganos #viajeros #animalitos #dswt #orfanato
