Elephants are tactile and this is especially important for infant calves. In the wild, these little ones would be coddled by family members, with trunks hugs and caresses. At our Nursery, the Keepers replicate this closeness, providing comfort and reassurance through touch.

The little baby elephants instinctively start looking for and eating their 🌿greens.🐘💚
Elephants have incredible survival instincts. At this age, orphaned calves are much too young to properly eat plants & are still fully dependent on milk. But time & again, even among those abandoned at birth, we see them foraging & fostering a love to eat their greens.
