“Even when she’s back in her stable for the night, Maisha is all business. After taking a quick break to say hello, she goes right back to diligently de-barking her branches,” the organisation wrote in the caption. The park also added that she’s even a “mini matriarch” as her ears are always perked to listen to the cry for help of the younger elephants.
“She is the first to start a chorus of reassuring rumbles if she senses one of the babies is fretting,” they added and concluded the post.
