The baby elephant grew up well and was released into the wild in 2009. A decade after and to everyone’s amazement, the animal returned to see Benjamin.
This time around, Sunyei brought her newborn baby as some kind of way to introduce her to Benjamin. Sheldrick’s director, Rob, said that it seems the animal never forgot her old friend.

A kid cared for birds
Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that eight-year-old Gabi Mann in Seattle is a kind-hearted kid who started feeding crows that always came to the windows of her home.
It all started as a result of her childish clumsiness when she would mistakenly drop food at the porch of their house. The crows would watch her leave before setting on the food.
After she noticed what the murder of crows was doing, she started feeding them intentionally. To reward her new friends, she shared her lunch with them.
