This story began in Nairobi nursery, the capital of Kenya in East Africa.

At the beginning of the film, after a brief introduction, we saw several orphan elephants. Some of them witnessed the family being killed by poachers. Some of them are due to accidents, which make it impossible for females to distinguish them by smell. Some of them were left behind by the mother elephants when they crossed the rapids. Elephants are very strict. They will not tolerate a foreign elephant abandoned by its mother.

The feeder line starts with these elephants.

Saving elephants that can't survive in the wild (the first stage)

Get along with the nursery in Nairobi until you are about 2 years old (the second stage)

Sent to a large zoo to live until 1 1 year old (the third stage)

Return to nature (fourth stage)

Emily

Under the protection of human beings, the work of saving orphans and elephants is divided into four stages, and the ultimate goal is to let them return to nature, form their own wild elephants and become familiar with wild life.

Emily, this 1 1 year-old elephant is a model in the third stage. From the documentary, we know that the elephant group is headed by a female elephant, and Emily is the head of the third stage. Her life experience is very bumpy.

It is what we said above, "Because of some accidents, the female elephant can't tell by smell." When I was a child, I fell into the cesspit and lost my sense of smell, which led my mother not only to recognize her, but even to roll her into the air and throw her down.

After being rescued by a nursery in Nairobi, it began a second life. Through its continuous efforts with the nurses, it is now possible to live in harmony with elephants from the second stage to the third stage, and even some elephants have regarded Emily as their mother.

……

But no matter what, Emily will always go to the wild. By the end of the first season of the documentary, Emily had successfully found her own world in the wild.

Nasian

Nassean is an orphan elephant rescued by Samburu and a model from the first stage to the second stage in this film. It may have been "accidentally lost while crossing the rapids with elephants", which caused it not to eat for several days before rescuers found Naxian.

Naxian tried to walk with other elephants before being rescued. However, because elephants are very strict with the family system, they don't want to accept a baby elephant that is not their own population. For the elephant family, this little elephant may cause certain danger to its own population.

However, because the Nasserists are too young to get rid of the care of elephants, they can only follow these wild elephants step by step, although they have been abandoned and pushed away.

After crossing the rapids, Naxian was taken back to the nursery in Nairobi by rescuers. He just returned to the nursery and was very angry because he was very scared. For a baby elephant like Nathan, who is only a few months old, it is easy to get pneumonia when crossing the rapids, and pneumonia is quite fatal to elephants.

Accompanied by the elephant attendant, Naxi 'an was lucky enough to survive and got this name, which means "lucky" in Samburu language.

……

Later, Naxian overcame his fear and became a "family" with other baby elephants in the nursery. Whenever new members arrived, he would communicate with them in a friendly way to help them integrate.

Such a change is called growth by human beings.

Wendy (female name)

Wendy is the most special elephant in the kindergarten. Although only two years old, she is like the head of many elephants in the nursery, leading them to contact new orphan elephants and helping them integrate as soon as possible.

She has a gentle personality, but who would have thought that what she experienced when she was young was that "her family died in front of her eyes and were all killed by poachers."

There is not much description of her in the film, but she is a model elephant from the second stage to the third stage.

She has experienced so much that she is more mature than an elephant of the same age, which leads orphans and elephants to regard Wendy as their mother. When Wendy reached the third stage, some elephants who had made good friends with her were still lost for a long time.

Originally, the nurse was afraid that Wendy would go to a new place to be the head of the elephant herd, and she would be unaccustomed or angry with an elephant bigger than her. However, what the medical staff didn't expect was that Wendy was surprisingly calm.

Perhaps she temporarily abandoned the playful nature of the elephant when she was the director of the nursery, and now she can finally enjoy the feeling of being loved by the elephant like the elephant.
