ORPHANAGE IN TIME FOR FEEDING THE ELEPHANTS (FEEDING
STARTS AT 1100 HRS FOR 01 HOUR)

Get ready to come close to elephant calves! As part of the David Sheldrick
Conservation Foundation, Daphne Sheldrick rehabilitates baby elephants and other
wildlife here at her home just outside of Nairobi National Park. These babies have
lost their mothers to poaching, death, injuries, on getting lost in the wild or other
tragedies. Daphne and her dedicated staff raise them to be released back into the
wild when they are ready. It’s worth visiting to see humanitarian care of the

wildlife and the heart it takes to care. There is a small entrance fee which can also
be paid through purchasing a souvenir or donating to the conservation.

GIRAFFES.

Since the Giraffe Centre’s founders Jock and Betty Leslie-Melville rescued a baby
giraffe named Daisy from a heavily-poached area of western Kenya in 1974, their
home has become a household name among wildlife lovers world-wide and Daisy
a star in her own right.

The Giraffe Centre is a non-profit organization whose main objective is to educate
school children and the youth of Kenya on conservation. It’s also a fun place for
visitors to learn about conservation, giraffes and actually get to feed the giraffes!
