An orphan from the Masai Mara, Asanje was 18 months old when she came to us on the 8th October 2013, as usual at that age emaciated and weak, having been without the milk of her elephant mother for some time. But, she calmed quickly and by the 15th has recovered sufficiently to be allowed out of the Taming Stockade to join the other Nursery elephants browsing out in the bush each day, until what turned out to be a fateful day at month end on the 30th October, 2013.
