Elephant Orphanage Project
The Lilayi Elephant Nursery, managed by Game Rangers International and established with ongoing critical support from the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation, rescues and rehabilitates orphaned elephant calves. Visitors can visit the Nursery between 11h30 – 13h00 and view the baby elephants from a platform located near the entrance to the game park. Once the elephants are old enough and independent enough to join wild herds, they are released into Kafue National Park.
