When Reteti started 6 years ago we felt a certain amount of trepidation. It was something that hadn't been done before and many believed it wasn't possible. However, the overwhelming need for a sanctuary for the elephants and the people of North Kenya outweighed the nerves and doubts that sometimes intimidated us. We have had our monumental ups and heart shattering downs, but we have started something from a grass roots level that we hope will spark other communities to know they too can play a massive role in conservation. For that we are so proud. We still have some hills to climb, but we feel more confident to do so with such an incredibly supportive community in you all. So thank you, and happy 6th anniversary! - Photo by Reteti Elephant Sanctuary #retetisixyears #reteti #retetielephants #rescue #wildliferescue #northernkenya #elephant #communityconservation #namunyakconservancy #samburu
