I adopted him when he was 1 year old. That\u2019s when the hunters killed his mother and he became a frightened, lonely orphan in the woods.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">There are many charities which aim to preserve animal lives. For me, I am dealing with the <strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">\u201cSheldrick Wildlife Trust\u201d<\/span><\/strong>, which specializes in finding endangered small animals, whose parents were murdered by vicious hunters.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Elephants, for example, become real orphans when their mother dies. They drown themselves in sorrow and cry all the time. They don\u2019t know how to eat or drink, and they usually end up starving and\/or dangerously wounded.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">The Sheldrick<\/span><\/strong> trust collects those animals from the woods in Africa, puts them in a nursery, feeds them, and provides them with necessary medical care. Then, they introduce to other members of their same species.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">All these activities need continuous support. This is done by showing these animals\u2019 stories, photos and names. So that you could select whoever you feel connected to, and support with only $50 each year in exchange for these privileges:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8211; The foundation issues a formal certificate is issues with your name and emails you a copy of it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8211; You get a monthly letter containing a lot of sweet photos of the adopted animal, along with a journal of their events.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8211; A lovely drawing of the adopted animal for you to hang it in your house or office.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8211; Access to the content of the animal\u2019s journal: all their stories, including photos and video clips.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8211; Of course, you could come anytime to Kenya and visit your adopted animal and know them closely<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #800000;\">The Sheldrick trust website (Africa):<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org\/orphans\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org\/orphans<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #800000;\">If you want to know more about other foundations for animal adoption:<\/span><\/strong> (Arabic blog)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/omnia-says.com\/?p=180\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/omnia-says.com\/?p=180<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Translated by: Aser Ahmad &lt;3<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hashtag\/adoption?__eep__=6&amp;__cft__%5b0%5d=AZVtSDIkScWd6PVMrWO45TCOQoo0emwalfrefnbwZCbDFhhPnTGLNx6N-QcTZSnC2m_sRGmeTxQZ9BLjOfIR3U7FJTYhHUHhnurjEvkfRL6oACDJbMKB78gVdON7uMsM5V9JltZATNH2yPgCV649Ajoh4_bsFcX0HsVJYkFK90fjoT4BoZSGy3GxHHP9Ry8Zs9k&amp;__tn__=*NK-R\">#Adoption<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hashtag\/animals?__eep__=6&amp;__cft__%5b0%5d=AZVtSDIkScWd6PVMrWO45TCOQoo0emwalfrefnbwZCbDFhhPnTGLNx6N-QcTZSnC2m_sRGmeTxQZ9BLjOfIR3U7FJTYhHUHhnurjEvkfRL6oACDJbMKB78gVdON7uMsM5V9JltZATNH2yPgCV649Ajoh4_bsFcX0HsVJYkFK90fjoT4BoZSGy3GxHHP9Ry8Zs9k&amp;__tn__=*NK-R\">#Animals<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hashtag\/africal?__eep__=6&amp;__cft__%5b0%5d=AZVtSDIkScWd6PVMrWO45TCOQoo0emwalfrefnbwZCbDFhhPnTGLNx6N-QcTZSnC2m_sRGmeTxQZ9BLjOfIR3U7FJTYhHUHhnurjEvkfRL6oACDJbMKB78gVdON7uMsM5V9JltZATNH2yPgCV649Ajoh4_bsFcX0HsVJYkFK90fjoT4BoZSGy3GxHHP9Ry8Zs9k&amp;__tn__=*NK-R\">#Africal<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hashtag\/baby_elephant?__eep__=6&amp;__cft__%5b0%5d=AZVtSDIkScWd6PVMrWO45TCOQoo0emwalfrefnbwZCbDFhhPnTGLNx6N-QcTZSnC2m_sRGmeTxQZ9BLjOfIR3U7FJTYhHUHhnurjEvkfRL6oACDJbMKB78gVdON7uMsM5V9JltZATNH2yPgCV649Ajoh4_bsFcX0HsVJYkFK90fjoT4BoZSGy3GxHHP9Ry8Zs9k&amp;__tn__=*NK-R\">#baby_elephant<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hashtag\/pieces_of_heart?__eep__=6&amp;__cft__%5b0%5d=AZVtSDIkScWd6PVMrWO45TCOQoo0emwalfrefnbwZCbDFhhPnTGLNx6N-QcTZSnC2m_sRGmeTxQZ9BLjOfIR3U7FJTYhHUHhnurjEvkfRL6oACDJbMKB78gVdON7uMsM5V9JltZATNH2yPgCV649Ajoh4_bsFcX0HsVJYkFK90fjoT4BoZSGy3GxHHP9Ry8Zs9k&amp;__tn__=*NK-R\">#pieces_of_heart<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hashtag\/elephant_adoption?__eep__=6&amp;__cft__%5b0%5d=AZVtSDIkScWd6PVMrWO45TCOQoo0emwalfrefnbwZCbDFhhPnTGLNx6N-QcTZSnC2m_sRGmeTxQZ9BLjOfIR3U7FJTYhHUHhnurjEvkfRL6oACDJbMKB78gVdON7uMsM5V9JltZATNH2yPgCV649Ajoh4_bsFcX0HsVJYkFK90fjoT4BoZSGy3GxHHP9Ry8Zs9k&amp;__tn__=*NK-R\">#elephant_adoption<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hashtag\/animal_rescue?__eep__=6&amp;__cft__%5b0%5d=AZVtSDIkScWd6PVMrWO45TCOQoo0emwalfrefnbwZCbDFhhPnTGLNx6N-QcTZSnC2m_sRGmeTxQZ9BLjOfIR3U7FJTYhHUHhnurjEvkfRL6oACDJbMKB78gVdON7uMsM5V9JltZATNH2yPgCV649Ajoh4_bsFcX0HsVJYkFK90fjoT4BoZSGy3GxHHP9Ry8Zs9k&amp;__tn__=*NK-R\">#animal_rescue<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Those who were following me for the past few years already know that I have adopted a young elephant named \u201cKauro\u201d, who lives in Kenya.
