Dear pals, I was called to run over the rainbow 🌈 bridge on Sunday. I hadn't been well for awhile and Sunday realized the bridge right there with all my friends waving to me! I ran over the bridge and am surrounded by friends. I'm no longer in pain and able to run as I did💖

When our orphans return to the wild, how do they find a herd? Slowly. Reintegration isn't a single moment – it happens over years. At our Reintegration Units in Tsavo and Umani Springs, orphans grow steadily more independent, spending days and then nights away, until the wild becomes home. Even then, many still choose return to the place and people that raised them every now and again. Most don't go it alone. They join herds of ex-orphans who went wild before them, or form their own, made up of other ex-orphans they grew up with – the friendships made at the unit become the family they live wild with. Suguta lives out in Tsavo with the same four friends she's had since the Nursery. As for who leads – matriarchy settles the way it does in any wild herd: through age, temperament, and the respect of the others. Herds aren’t one amorphous unit either, groups will splinter off and then rejoin, and these splinter herds will have their own mini-leaders. For more about how we reintegrate orphaned elephants to the wild, a process we’ve honed over nearly five decades, visit: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/projects/orpha…

Pals! It was hot today but we took an afternoon drive to Moors Landing at Wright Patman Lake. Stop scrolling and take a little nature break with us! #TravelsWithLittleBear

Arghhjjj😢

Today's edition of #WheresWigglebutt Difficulty Level: steep 🧐🐾🤎

A young human spotted me today and got very excited. She jumped up and down while shrieking "Puppy!" in a high pitched tone at max volume. During her excited bouncing she dropped her cookie which rolled right past my paws and came to rest under our table close enough for me to reach. But I'm a Professional Good Girl™ so I made no attempt to touch it even though it looked very tasty. The child, however, chased that cookie and retrieved it off the floor and scarfed it down with the speed and enthusiasm of a hungry labrador retriever. I was impressed. I bet that kid can fetch well! #ServiceDogLife #ProfessionalGoodGirl #CookieChase #ChesnyyIsAGoodGirl

I have no idea why, but Popsy is calling me Bearilyn Monroe! #cheekmole

Don’t look now! Something odd happened to my bouffant!

Happy Birthday to my HooDad! 🩵🐾🥳 He took me in, takes care of me, and loves me lots! I know I can be difficult sometimes, but thank you for being patient with me, loving me, and helping me become the best little me I can be. I love you lots!

@SheldrickTrust Absolutely beautiful
