When Murera sets her heart on something, she doesn't give up. First it was survival: as an infant, poaching injuries brought her to brink of death, but she fought for life. Typically, she approached starting a family in the same determined way. First, she took the younger orphans under...

Nasalot arrives at Ithumba twice a day. She has done so, reliably, throughout February – arriving with Nala close at her side, drinking from the trough, spending time with the herd, and heading back out into Tsavo. Why? Because the bonds we forged with Nasalot when she was an orphaned baby have lasted long into adulthood. She was just three months old when she lost her own family to poachers. She came to us traumatised and distraught, pacing her stable through the night, unable to sleep, unable to settle. But time heals all wounds – and she became one of the most nurturing elephants in the Ithumba herd. And now she arrives each morning with a daughter of her own to share with us. Meet Nasalot:

Amina had always believed fire was alive. 🔥 When she was little, she would sit by the cooking flame and watch it dance, whispering promises to it. While other children feared the heat, she dreamed of mastering it. She wanted to be a fire magician not for fame, but to turn fear into beauty, to shape flames into light that could inspire people. Years later, under a quiet night sky, Amina finally performed her first real fire ritual. Her hands trembled, but her heart was steady. The fire rose higher than she expected, wild and untamed. For a split second, it slipped beyond her control. A sudden burst of heat flashed toward her face, and the world filled with brightness and pain. When she woke days later, the mirror beside her bed told a story she wasn’t ready to read. The fire she loved had left its mark. Her once smooth skin was scarred, and with it came a wave of grief. Amina turned away, feeling as if her dream had burned with her reflection. For weeks, she hid from the world. But one evening, as the sun dipped low, a small candle flickered on her windowsill. She stared at it, her chest tight. The flame was gentle, almost apologetic. In its glow, she realized something: fire had never promised to be safe only honest. Slowly, Amina returned to her craft. This time, she didn’t chase the fire. She listened to it. She learned patience, respect, and balance. When she finally performed again, the audience didn’t see her scars first. They saw the way she moved with the flame calm, graceful, fearless. And as the fire spiraled around her hands, Amina smiled. Her face carried the memory of pain, but her spirit carried something stronger: resilience. She had not lost her dream to the fire. She had been reshaped by it, just like the flames she now guided with quiet mastery.

Our Umani Springs matriarch, Murera, and her daughter Murera, the first calf born to an orphan from this unit herd of rescued elephants now living in the Kibwezi Forest. It’s nothing short of miraculous that both mum and daughter are here today. Murera arrived into our care so badly injured that vets proposed euthanasia. We saw a slither of hope and pushed back. Back then, we sought Murera’s survival, at that time she was too physically broken for us to be thinking about the prospect of her mothering a next generation.

It's #WorldGiraffeDay. Come for a walk through with Pips. She is nine months old, and the youngest giraffe orphan in our care. We rescued her in September 2025 after her mother was killed by lions. She had been hiding alone for days, slipping in to drink at a water trough and disappearing again. Pips is in esteemed company. The first giraffe we raised to the wild was Kiko, rescued in 2015 and now continuing his rewilding at Lewa. Twiggy, another, joined the wild around the time Pips turned up, and has been seen in the company of a boyfriend. Pips is still at the beginning of her journey. Read her story and help support Kenya's giraffe with an adoption:

Here is Noelia Castillo Ramos with her father only a few years back. Smiling. Happy. Loved. The government in Spain betrayed her 3 times. First, when they took her by force from her parents and put her in a government center. Over “financial troubles.” Second, when they allegedly allowed dangerous illegals into the country and did nothing to prevent it or stop them while they gang r*per her. Third, when they convinced her euthanasia was the best option and made her feel like there was no turning back. Even convincing her and her family that her organs were already compromised after the decision was made. We don't know if that part is really true, but it is difficult to believe or understand since she has been living for years after the injury she sustained jumping from the 5th story of the government center. It is difficult to think about, but she is likely taking her last breaths as I type this. Still praying for a miracle, but unfortunately, we are at the scheduled time. They planned to start the process 39 minutes ago, meaning she is already potentially in an induced coma, as the toxins that are designed to stop her from breathing begin to be administered. She should be alive and well right now and maybe even starting a family of her own. Instead, she is in a hospital all alone for what is scheduled to be the last moments of her life. Regardless of what happens, please pray for her.

Grief impacts each orphan differently. For some, rescued within days or hours of birth with little memory of their lost mother or herd, it is fleeting. Instinctually, they follow any figure bigger than themselves, grateful for comfort. Others, rescued at an older age, with deeper memories, feel it more acutely. They retreat from the world and need lots of patience as they slowly begin to trust and come out of their shells. We rescued Alia last October. She arrived at our Nairobi Nursery deeply withdrawn after losing her mother and family. For months, she kept to herself and watched the other orphans play from a distance. This April, the Keepers noticed something change. She climbed into the mud wallow with the herd. She even invited Arthi to play. She is still our quietest girl but months later, she is starting to open up. Adopting Alia helps fund her milk, her Keepers, and the years of growing up ahead until she's ready to rejoin the wild.

Kipekee is one of the youngest in our Nursery herd – and the most influential. When she dashes around the stockades in excitement, the others do the same. When she runs into the forest, they jog along behind. The Keepers have a phrase for it: Kipekee & Co. Muridjo does most of the nanny shifts but you can also become a guardian to Kipekee too. Adopting Kipekee helps fund her milk, her Keepers, and her years of growing up with the herd that's already devoted to her:

A citizen in Istanbul found an approximately 6-week-old kitten that had been left all alone on the street, crying for help and meowing from hunger and desperation. After feeding the kitten, the citizen took it to a shelter so it could be safe. But the story didn't end there. Most likely, the mother cat had only left her kitten for a short time to look for food. When she returned and couldn't find her kitten where she had left it, she immediately began searching for it. She wandered around the area for days, checking every shelter and clinic she came across. Then one day, she heard a meowing sound coming from a clinic. She immediately recognized that the voice belonged to her own kitten. Without hesitation, she followed the sound inside and went straight to her kitten. And the very first thing she did after being reunited with her baby was nurse it 🥺 How powerful is a mother's love... To recognize her own kitten's voice among countless others and never give up until she found it 😭❤️

RUNAWAY FINAL EP #หนีไปก็ตายเปล่าครั้งสุดท้าย #RunawayTheSeries #หนีไปก็ตายเปล่า First of all, let’s talk about the ending. In the series, we added a scene of them going on a trip after being discharged from the hospital. However, the ending everyone saw was the conclusion of the "main story," which follows the original novel. Initially, I intended to end it right there, but I felt it wasn't satisfying enough. So, I added a special chapter specifically to crush Korn even further. Now, let's get to the point. For anyone wondering when Boon was actually possessed, I’m going to reveal everything here. (Please look at the attached images for context on each scene.) Boon was protected by the Moon Deity and possessed her own magical spells, making it impossible for ghosts to harm or retain her. In EP4, when Boon returned to pack her things, her mother inscribed mystic symbols on her right palm to boost her power so she could fight Jomkwan, knowing her vengeance was powerful. If you look closely, every time Jomkwan touched Boon, her hands would burn so hot that smoke appeared. Yet, she fought through the pain without showing it. However, all those protective spells were destroyed the moment Boon grabbed the ritual knife to deflect it from stabbing Win. Once her guardian deity's power weakened, it was game over. Jomkwan began planning to possess Boon the moment she touched her and didn't feel the heat anymore. This is why she stared at Boon for so long; she was calculating. She then tricked everyone into a false sense of security, acting as if she had surrendered and was leaving. The possession actually started the second when Win said, "Let’s finish what we started." Being cunning, Jomkwan slowly took over Boon’s body bit by bit, thinking Boon wouldn't notice. She feared that if she knew, she would use her magic to resist. But she was wrong. Boon knew exactly what was happening, yet she "willingly" let her possess her. Out of guilt for what she had done in the past, she saw this as the only way to atone for her adoptive sister. It was actually Jomkwan who didn't realize Boon was letting her in. The possession became 100% complete after the vacation house was burned down, once all ties were severed and there were no obligations left. Note: Since Jomkwan didn't just want to possess her but wanted to claim the body as her own, Boon’s soul passed away as a result. Regarding Jompol Monk’s advice to burn the house, it wasn't because he wanted to help her. He only realized what was happening after Jomkwan had already fully possessed Boon. She was so convincing that she even fooled a monk. Jomkwan's playfulness in Boon's body when they leave the hospital, and she asks, "Ghosts?" There was no longer any reason to make Win see ghosts, because the real ghost - Jomkwan - was standing right in front of her. Win only truly started to realize something was wrong because the feeling of being near this fake Boon changed. She didn't feel the same heart-fluttering sensation she felt with the real Boon or Thamon. It wasn't until she saw the reflection in the mirror that she finally knew the truth. My favorite line is: "Oops! So you finally realized?" The tone is so mocking and provocative. It perfectly conveys Jomkwan taunting Win, showing her that even though she ran away, it was all for nothing.

Olare is a mother! Earlier this week, our beautiful ex-orphan returned to Ithumba and proudly introduced us to her equally beautiful baby girl, who we have named Ola. Olare was orphaned at a tender young age, but despite the heartbreak she faced, she never let her past define her. She has an enormous heart and has always been an exceptional nanny, first at the Nursery, then at our Ithumba Reintegration Unit, and later to her friends’ wild-born babies. We are thrilled that Olare now has the opportunity to raise her own baby — and we know that she will be an excellent mum. To read more about Olare’s new addition, visit:

My husband and I adopted a 10.5 year old dog. Not because we were looking for another dog, but because she sat at the shelter for 3 months without a single person inquiring about her or meeting her and we didn’t want her dying alone. She wasn’t with a rescue but people in the rescue community were networking her because she was the sweetest and was every shelter volunteer’s favorite dog. They would even let her hang out in the office with them. I heard about her and the next day we went to meet her and adopted her. She was covered in ticks when we brought her home, and it took a lot of vet visits, treatments, trial and error, and patience to finally heal her from it. There were moments where it felt overwhelming, but she was worth every bit of effort. We weren’t sure how long she would live but we didn’t care, because it wasn’t about us, it was about her. Thankfully she was with us for three years and passed just two months ago at 13.5 years old, which is ancient. She was an amazing dog and I loved her just as much as all my other dogs. Seniors are the best and they’re just as deserving of a loving home as any other dog. 📹treatsnatcher

I genuinely cannot understand how someone can watch this story and still stand there, looking at two women, and somehow decide that the wrong one is the victim. On one side, you have a girl (Yıldız) who has been mistreated her entire life. Since the moment she was born, she was treated like a sacrifice for a conflict she was never even part of and later we find out that this conflict never even existed. Her right to study was taken from her. She was pushed into a marriage at a very young age just imagine being six, seven, eight years old, living in fear of being tied to someone you don’t even know. She was treated like a servant in her own home, by the very people she thought were her family. And just when she gets close to the happiness she dreamed of, the man she was engaged to shows up with another wife. She gets mistreated by that wife, by his family, and even (unintentionally) by him, because he was trying to run away from his own feelings, and that only caused her more heartbreak. The whole world was literally against her. She fought through all of that, only to find out in the end that everything she suffered for was based on something that wasn’t even real. Her entire life was built on a lie. That she isn’t even part of that family that she has literally no one in this world. Now on the other side… You have a girl (Melek) who, yes, was taken from her biological mother but she was raised by loving parents. She had everything anyone could wish for: education, freedom, a happy childhood, a healthy environment. She lived her life, fell in love, went out, made choices and no one questioned her, no one controlled her. And then what did she do? She found out that her man was engaged to another woman before marrying her (and even saw him marry her) and instead of holding on to her dignity, she chose to stay, to fight for a man who lied to her, to hold onto a marriage he tried to end multiple times. She used her unborn child to keep him tied to her. She lied constantly, and her excuse was that she was “protecting her marriage” a marriage that was already broken from the moment Serhat removed that ring at the airport in episode one. She tried to hand Yıldız (a woman who had already suffered enough) over to dangerous people. Then she found out the truth about her own birth (that her father ra*ped her mother.)And still no empathy. No moment of humanity toward her own mother. All she cared about was herself. And even though none of this had anything to do with Yıldız, she still found a way to blame it on her. Instead of holding her father accountable, she went and made a deal with him to get rid of Yıldız. She literally made a deal with the devil just to hurt Yıldız one more time. And after all of that… you want me to feel sorry for her? You want me to call her a victim? I honestly cannot believe we are living on the same planet with people who see this and still say, “she’s the victim.” Not morally. Not logically. Not emotionally. There is no world where this makes sense. It’s like watching someone clearly cause harm, and still calling them the victim and actually BELIEVING it. #HalefKöklerinÇağrısı

I genuinely cannot understand how someone can watch this story and still stand there, looking at two women, and somehow decide that the wrong one is the victim. On one side, you have a girl (Yıldız) who has been mistreated her entire life. Since the moment she was born, she was treated like a sacrifice for a conflict she was never even part of and later we find out that this conflict never even existed. Her right to study was taken from her. She was pushed into a marriage at a very young age just imagine being six, seven, eight years old, living in fear of being tied to someone you don’t even know. She was treated like a servant in her own home, by the very people she thought were her family. And just when she gets close to the happiness she dreamed of, the man she was engaged to shows up with another wife. She gets mistreated by that wife, by his family, and even (unintentionally) by him, because he was trying to run away from his own feelings, and that only caused her more heartbreak. The whole world was literally against her. She fought through all of that, only to find out in the end that everything she suffered for was based on something that wasn’t even real. Her entire life was built on a lie. That she isn’t even part of that family that she has literally no one in this world. Now on the other side… You have a girl (Melek) who, yes, was taken from her biological mother but she was raised by loving parents. She had everything anyone could wish for: education, freedom, a happy childhood, a healthy environment. She lived her life, fell in love, went out, made choices and no one questioned her, no one controlled her. And then what did she do? She found out that her man was engaged to another woman before marrying her (and even saw him marry her) and instead of holding on to her dignity, she chose to stay, to fight for a man who lied to her, to hold onto a marriage he tried to end multiple times. She used her unborn child to keep him tied to her. She lied constantly, and her excuse was that she was “protecting her marriage” a marriage that was already broken from the moment Serhat removed that ring at the airport in episode one. She tried to hand Yıldız (a woman who had already suffered enough) over to dangerous people. Then she found out the truth about her own birth (that her father ra*ped her mother.)And still no empathy. No moment of humanity toward her own mother. All she cared about was herself. And even though none of this had anything to do with Yıldız, she still found a way to blame it on her. Instead of holding her father accountable, she went and made a deal with him to get rid of Yıldız. She literally made a deal with the devil just to hurt Yıldız one more time. And after all of that… you want me to feel sorry for her? You want me to call her a victim?

Lenana’s journey began in heartbreak. She was found beside her mother’s lifeless body at Ol Pejeta Conservancy, trying in vain to wake her. Too young to survive on her own, she was rescued and brought into our care. She’s named after the third highest peak of Mount Kenya, visible from the land of her birth. Today, Lenana lives wild and free — and has become a mother in her own right. In 2020, she introduced us to her first calf, a little bull named Lapa. Last December, she returned once more with a baby at her side: Laki, her second son. Once a grieving orphan, now a proud mother of two — Lenana’s story is a powerful reminder of what is possible with your support:

When we first found Bianca, she was living on a tragically short chain in her own dirt. She was so incredibly shy, but the one thing that always gave away her beautiful spirit was her signature tippy-tap dance. Fast forward to today, and Bianca is thriving in the USA with her amazing family. She even got dressed up today all ready for Hawaii! Oh to see a dog go from the most heartbreaking beginnings to living a true dream life. 🥲

We rescued Bombi the zebra earlier this year, after lions killed her mother and left her an orphan. She came to us with serious wounds, but thanks to round-the-clock care from her Keepers, she healed wonderfully. This was filmed soon after her rescue, as Bombi got to know her new human family. Peter’s distinctive outfit – which he still wears – was key to Bombi’s recovery, enabling her to imprint on her Keepers just as she would have on her mother in the wild. Find out how we rescue orphaned wildlife like Bombi and protect the habitats they call home:
