Booming in the Baby Business - Unfortunately

CNN World posted a news story today about the expanding life at the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust orphanage in Kenya, and things, unfortunately are booming in the baby business. Saga seems to be the same old story - drought, poaching and farmer conflicts. The new twist is the lack of tourist dollars to help support the orphans. In previous years tourism boomed and smaller numbers of little elies meant managing was, well, manageable. Now the situation has become more problematic with more elies and fewer dollars. If you would like to help you can DONATE HERE.

Here's the video and link to the CNN story:
