About us - Elephant Nature Park

As the first elephant sanctuary of its kind in Asia, the park has rescued and cared for elephants who were once subjected to cruel practices such as street begging, elephant riding, and circus shows. Many of these elephants have suffered both physical and psychological injuries.

Born from one family’s passion for Kenya and its wilderness, the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust was established more than 40 years ago and is best known for its Orphans' Project, the first and most successful elephant orphan rescue and rehabilitation program in the world. The Sheldrick Trust is a pioneering conservation organisation, dedicated to the protection of wildlife and the preservation of habitats in East Africa.

There is also a book written by Daphné Sheldrick about how the charity started and also about her and David's (the founder) love story

This is the first Indonesian animal farm sanctuary. They are in need of funds now.
Have a look, and only if you can (and you helped yourself first) consider helping them.

In 1964, actress Virginia McKenna DBE and her husband, actor Bill Travers MBE, went to Kenya to make and star in what would become a wildlife classic, Born Free. The film was based on Joy Adamson’s best-selling book of the same name – the extraordinary tale of how she and her husband George raised Elsa, an orphaned lion cub, before releasing her into the wilderness of Kenya.​

Learning about the plight of wild animals during the making of the film was a life-changing experience for Virginia and Bill, who went on to make a number of wildlife films and documentaries together, including An Elephant Called Slowly with a young wild-caught elephant calf called Pole Pole. After filming, Pole Pole was gifted to London Zoo by the Kenyan government despite Virginia and Bill’s protests. Years later, Virginia and Bill went to the zoo to visit Pole Pole. Seeing her distress, they launched a campaign for her release, but Pole Pole died in 1983, aged just 16.

The premature death of Pole Pole led to Virginia and Bill establishing Zoo Check in 1984 with their eldest son Will Travers OBE. Zoo Check evolved to become the Born Free Foundation in 1991. Today, Will Travers is Born Free’s Executive President.

Pole Pole’s death led Virginia, Bill and Will to become tireless campaigners for animal welfare and conservation.
