No problem, It really pisses me off when people say such things. It's such an insult to Daphne Sheldrick and the years of heartbreak and learning that went into her pioneering this unique project for some of Africa's most vulnerable species.

you are completly right ! Pepole, please, learn about the David Sheldrick Elephants Orphanage before leaving a wrong comment. Thank you.

It isn't a jail. Better do some research on the elephant orphanage in Kenya before making such ignorant comments.

Such a cute little baby. I'd pay anything to bail him out of that jail :-)
