Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher spent time at The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust visiting both our Nursery elephant orphans and the older orphans at Ithumba.  They were both captivated by the project, the eles and each individual’s tragic story.   The plight of elephants in Africa at the moment, due to the impact of the drought and the increase in ivory poaching, coupled with amplified human wildlife conflict due to habitat loss, is a huge worry, with populations in much of Africa now under serious threat.
