Housing Many Species
Aside from baby elephants, Thula Thula Wildlife Rehabilitation Reserve where they took Ellie took in various kinds of animals. The game reserve primarily housed victims of poaching cases, particularly rhinos. You will also find leopards, hyenas, crocodiles, zebras, giraffes, and buffalo in there. Although the young elephant could have made many friends there, Ellie did not appear interested in socializing with the other orphans. However, everything changed when someone came along and formed an amazing bond with the baby African elephant. We bet you would not guess what kind of animal it was!

Knowing that Ellie was in a precarious condition, no one could have foreseen what was going to happen with this unlikely duo. After all, what are the odds that an elephant and a dog will get along just fine?
