Wild and Woolly: An Elephant and his Sheep | oasishd.ca

Themba, the baby elephant, lost his mother after she fell down a cliff. The team at the Shamwari Rehabilitation Centre rescued him and for two years they dedicated their lives to getting this very special orphan back to the wild.

Themba soon befriended a very patient sheep named Albert… Albert never left Themba’s side and would follow Themba and his carers on long walks; share in Themba’s favourite snack of acacia pods; and when Themba took a dust bath, so did Albert.

I love how Themba is imitating all of Albert’s behaviors

The new nose hair trimmer was worth every penny.

“8-month baby elephant orphan Themba, whose name in Xhosa means “hope”, and started a friendship with a sheep Alberta on arrival from the hospital Shamvari Reserve, where he stayed for six months.”
