Nursery Unit  November   21, 2011 There are now l8 infant elephants in our Nairobi Nursery, tiny Kithaka being the new kid in the block. In the morning the two tiny babies were taken out together, Sasab heading off in any direction while little Kithaka followed the Keepers closely. When the older girls spotted the tiny newcomer, the Keepers had a difficult time keeping order for all wanted to be as close as possible to the latest baby. Even naughty Ishanga was a front-runner vying with Shukuru. Meanwhile Makireti gave up and went instead to find Sasab in order to baby-sit him. The rest of the day proceeded smoothly, all attention focused on the tiny newcomer.
