Kristan MacKay

Kaikai was a girl on a mission. She slunk away from the mud bath with one thing in mind: more milk. The empty bottles hadn’t escaped her notice and she had clearly been plotting ever since. Her belly was already full, courtesy of the now-empties, but she thought they might just bear a surprise extra serving. Kaikai isn’t quite big enough to hold her own bottle, but she has fully grasped the technique. It was fascinating (and impressive) to watch her problem solve her way through the situation. She’s such an ingenious little elephant. (And don’t worry, we lent a helping hand in the end) Kaikai is here today because of supporters like you. Rescued as a newborn orphan, she will have a home with us until she is ready to reclaim her place in the wild, a process that may take upwards of a decade.
