Sheldrick Trust

Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (SWT) is a global leader in elephant conservation and one of Africa’s most respected wildlife charities. SWT works across Kenya to protect wildlife and preserve habitats through field-based operations and broad community support. At the heart of its work is its pioneering Orphans’ Project — a first-of-its-kind programme to rescue, raise, and rewild orphaned elephants and rhinos.

Backed by 50 years of field experience, SWT delivers practical solutions and long-term impact across Kenya’s most critical landscapes. This channel brings you the latest from the frontlines of conservation: orphan rescues, field operations, and more.
