"To Loijuk the elephant, nothing is more important than family —
especially now that she is starting one of her own.
In 2006, the orphaned elephant was found all alone at only 5 months old,
and was rescued by the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (SWT) in Kenya. She was
hand-raised by SWT until she was old enough to return to the wild.
Years have passed, but Loijuk still has a close bond with her human
family. She returns to the grounds of the sanctuary every month to
visit. But in September, Loijuk surprised her former caretakers with a
newborn elephant calf in tow."
