Twins

David Yarrow:

"This simple image taken 10 days ago in Kenya is emblematic of the thriving elephant population and successful conservation work in Amboseli. In the last 12 months, over 130 elephants have been born. Some senior animals, notably the elephant Tim have passed away from old age, but none have been lost to poaching over the last six years. Huge credit must be given to the KWS and NGOs such as Big Life and Tusk.
Amboseli is a paragon of conservation models, and can happen elsewhere. Seasoned rangers who have seen it all and can be somewhat indifferent to animal encounters, but when we found this mother with her twins born during Covid-19, they ordered me to stop and document it. I felt their pride".
