Hello friend of Wild is Life,

We welcome you to sit back and enjoy a candid couch conservation between dear friends Roxy and David as they discuss:

  • How elephants are readers of the hearts - Kura (a very large bull) shared a special moment with David

  • Kadiki, a treasured new matriarch and the role of humans and matriarchs in the success of elephant rehabilitation

  • Baby Summer - the first baby born to the Wild is Life herd in Panda Masuie

  • How elephants learn from the herd and the benefits of their social structures and more…

Her mother Anabell was once a very severely traumatised elephant, but over many years of dedicated care, she is now flourishing and nurturing the next generation.
