Fostering Rorogoi
On August 14, through The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, I opted to foster Rorogoi, a beautiful elephant orphan.

But the Elephant knew she was in the presence of August – in the presence of the waning African winter. She had survived another minute – another hour – another day – another month. She’d survived another season, and…
