While some are not so sure that this is actually in Malamulele, they were wowed by the beautiful animals nonetheless. A few were a little worried as to what other animals were lurking in the bushes though, lol!

Reflecting on the beauty that our amazing continent holds, many oozed pride to be African! It is such a blessing to have the abundance of wildlife that we do, and that is precisely why we need to respect it and protect it.

A decade after being set free, elephant returns to caretaker with baby

An orphaned elephant was found two decades ago as a baby by volunteers of the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Kenya, reported Briefly News.

Stranded and alone, the organisation took the infant animal into their care. While at their nursery, a man, Benjamin, became the animal’s caregiver, Global Positive News reports.

Every day, Benjamin would see to the welfare of the baby, later named Sunyei. Sunyei was not the only infant in the nursery, there were others too.
