Michaela and six orphaned elephants from Nairobi arrive at Ithumba, the new release site.

Series about orphaned baby elephants at the David Shelrick Wildlife Trust in Kenya. Michaela and the six orphaned elephants from Nairobi arrive at Ithumba, the new release site.

After a long and dramatic journey, Michaela and the six little orphaned elephants from Nairobi arrive at Ithumba, the new release site in the wilds of northern Tsavo, but their leader Wendi is out of her depth in their strange new home. Back in Nairobi, the four baby elephants left behind are struggling to cope with the loss of their mini-matriarch. Hopefully help is at hand for Wendi. 

In southern Tsavo, Jonathan prepares for action as four much bigger female orphans are reluctantly separated from Emily's huge herd. The idea is that these more experienced females will help Wendi and the youngsters already at Ithumba settle in. But will it work? Jonathan follows the entire move and is an eyewitness when things go badly wrong.
