Elephant Diaries featured on BBC one this week is a series of five programmes filmed over the course of a year at The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and in the release sites in Kenya. Jonathan Scott and Michaela Strachan introduce one of Africa’s most dysfunctional families – a group of elephants, raised by people, on their perilous journey back to the wild. This book Wild Orphans tells the story of the plight of the African elephant and contains beautiful photos to accompany the story.
