Adopt a baby elephant today!
Meet the orphans of Reteti Elephant Sanctuary – each one rescued, each one remarkable.
From $5 or more per month, you can become part of their story.
Adopt Long’uro
Our resilient and one-of-a-kind elephant who lost most of his trunk.
Long'uro is proof that nothing can hold you back if you have the right spirit.
We celebrate his courage, optimism, and intrepid personality everyday. His life represents so much, to the community, to the keepers, and to conservation globally. His story is only beginning and we hope you too, will join us in supporting him the rest of the way.
Adopt Kimani
Our brave and bright-eyed little bull, rescued at just 3 days old.
Kimani is proof that the smallest hearts can carry the greatest strength.
Kimani was pulled from a well on Kalepo Conservancy - barely alive, but already full of fight. Since arriving at Reteti, he has charmed everyone around him with his courageous spirit and a curiosity about the world that grows bigger every day.

Which Reteti elephant is your soul twin?
Take the quiz and find out.
Here at the sanctuary, no two elephants are alike. Some tackle new experiences like born leaders, while others observe quietly, thinking deeply. A few are shy, staying close to their trusted keepers, and then there are those who roam with wild abandon – greeting every bird and tree with wide-eyed wonder. Just like people, elephants feel deeply and express themselves in beautifully different ways. One may be playful and bold, while their best friend is gentle and reflective.
And each one has a story worth sharing... From the dreamers to the explorers to the philosophers, these extraordinary beings teach us more than we can ever say.
This quiz is a fun way to meet the personalities behind the trunks, but also stirs a spark of connection and a reminder of who you really are.
Find your kindred spirit in the Reteti herd.
We are a community-driven movement that is growing new economies, transforming lives, and conserving natural resources.
We would not be able to do any of our work without your support. Ashe oleng (thank you)!
