The rescue of Humpty, the Little Hippo | Sheldrick Trust
We rescued Humpty after she became stuck in the mud, trapped in a fast drying pond in Lamu, Northern Kenya. Tiny and weak, our team were able to rescue her and bring her to our Kaluku Field Heaquarters where she was offered rehydration fluids, milk and a long shower for her delicate skin.
Update: Devastatingly, we are heart-broken to share that Humpty passed away in 2017 after she suffered a twisted gut. Humpty was a revelation and having the privilege of knowing her intimately was truly special for she taught us so much The only comfort we draw is in the knowledge that her short life could not have been a happier one, and this was evident for all to see as Humpty ruled our Kaluku headquarters.

Established in 1977, the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (SWT) operates the world’s most successful orphan elephant rescue and rehabilitation program, rescuing and hand-rearing orphaned elephants and other animals that have lost their mothers, all too often as a result of human activity. But we do much more than this. Through our Aerial, Anti-Poaching and Mobile Veterinary Units, we safeguard the natural environment and provide immediate assistance to wild animals in need. We also secure irreplaceable wilderness areas so that animals will always have space to roam and work with local partners and communities to ensure people and wildlife can live alongside one another.
