Throwing it back to our unforgettable time in Ethiopia with Tropic Air Kenya — a land of ancient history, breathtaking landscapes, and warm hospitality. While travel isn’t possible right now due to the conflict, we hold onto these memories and hope to return to exploring this uniquely incredible country soon.

Conservation success up north.
Words and video by @iancraigkenya.
I was so lucky a couple of evenings ago finding this herd coming in for their sundowners- There is such a great story evolving with north Kenya’s elephants reflected in the fact that there are far fewer elephant on Lewa as they feel safer elsewhere - with the bans in place on the trade in ivory working so well and the Elephant Protection initiative in place - black market ivory prices have dropped from a high of $180 per kg in 2013 to $30 today - demand is down - poaching is down and elephant are safer moving further afield from their traditionally safe havens of the protected areas. For poachers the reward of killing an elephant for ivory doesn’t warrant the risk - for conservation authorities precious funds previously needed to resource anti poaching efforts can be directed into more constructive aspects of conservation - lives of rangers and poachers alike are being saved. What a winning out comes from such a complex political process to ban the sale of ivory.

We are glad to have attended the screening of The Elephant Queen at @boranaconservancy
recently.
The Elephant Queen is a genre redefining film starring the ultimate leading lady, Athena, an elephant matriarch who will do everything in her power to protect her family when they are forced to leave their waterhole.
Borana Conservancy is dedicated to the sustainable conservation of land and wildlife. All proceeds from livestock and other commercial enterprises are invested in to a wide range of community focused conservation efforts.
Together with @lewa_wildlife this landscape forms one of the largest continuous rhino habitats in East Africa.

Repost Save the Elephants Exciting news! Elephant TWINS have been born in Samburu National Reserve! 🐘 🐘
During the weekend, Bora from the Winds family gave birth to TWO elephant calves. Here is the pair (male and female) at around a day old, exploring their surroundings and making friends with a big bull called Daud.
Twin births like this are very rare - in fact we haven’t seen twins in the park in decades!
Congratulations to the eagle eye guides at @elephantwatchcamp who first spotted the twins and alerted our researchers. We’ll be sure to keep you updated on the progress of these special little pachyderms.
