Photo by amivitale / Orphaned elephant Hamsini is shown at the Reteti Elephant Sanctuary (r.e.s.c.u.e) in northern Kenya. Hamsini was rescued from a well that she fell into when she was just a year old, in May 2019. As the drought continues, the falling water table means that wells are getting deeper, making it increasingly harder for elephants to get to the water and more likely for baby elephants like Hamsini to fall in. Climate-related issues are becoming one of the main reasons that elephants can become orphaned.
