I decided to blog about another episode, this time about elephants. In Africa, Chris and Martin go to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to take care of three orphaned elephants for the day: Emily, Itaung, and Amente. We learn about how difficult it is for the caretakers to care for these babies and how care must be taken to start introducing them into the wild. The importance of food, water, play, communication, and friendship is emphasized. Also too, the brothers get involved in a mudbath! In the end, the episode proves to be fun and educational. Alas, some small amount of evolution is advocated: elephants have had tusks for over 5 million years. Now, onto Part 2...
