Now this remarkable blue chip film reveals the amazing and emotional lives of the island's stunning elephants. Filmed by Martyn Colbeck, one of the world's greatest wildlife cameramen, this is the moving story of Sri Lanka's lost elephants. How well have they survived the brutal war? What's happened to the great tuskers the island was once famous for?

*Elephants are so intelligent!*
Amazing how the elephants have manners instilled in them even at a young age!! Beautiful creatures!
I’m glad these lovely animals are being taken care of.... but still sad to see them without their mother!
Rosalyn Samuels and in the future that little elephant with the prosthetic leg would probably be appreciated in the future
thats why these elephants are called orphans!!! being sad won't bring their parents back to life. What you can do to contribute is to bring donations to this sanctuary so that these few amazing people can continue doing their noble works
I am so proud right now! Being a Sri Lankan I live with these! Best Life ever
What intelligent and marvelous creatures!
Awww beautiful creature's, so precious ❤️❤️❤️
How amazing. Elephants always show me something new about their intelligence. I love these magnificent animals.
Beautiful, Majestic creatures!
I was so luck to be there. If I am not wrong, It is elephant transit home in Srilanka, near Udawalawe national park.
in sri lanka killing an elephant gives u an immediate death penalty not like america where pple wait like 15 years to be executed its immediate there
Jun Choi Really? I never knew that.
yes really look it up sri lanka is the island nation right next to india
yes it is ETH udawalawe
So?? These elephants then go on to join the jungle herd??
Oh my gosh they're so cute🐘🐘🐘🐘
They're wayyy too *_CUTE_*
This orphanage is in my beautiful country Sri Lanka 🇱🇰!!!!!!!!
Can they stop being so cute 😂😂💓💓💓💓💓
Kerry Li I was just about to say that too haha... maybe coz he loves elephants:)
The babys are way ugly though.
Quadruple million seller's fan I've seen this fool post on other comments with the same stupid thought process
Definitely missing plenty of brain cells
Quadruple million seller's fan can you stop being cute ? Lol
Congrats to the keepers its a beautiful important job that requires emotional peace and intelligence in order to get the elephants trust
East or west ,elephant are best

Great job Sri Lanka. Well done
It’s amazing how orderly these elephants are.
Simply wonderful. Thank You

Baby ele..will get some more treat ..for biggie tummy
Beautiful animals with loving caring people. thanks for the video
This is so damn cute.
Wow que belleza. Son tan Inteligentes esos elefantes. Qué bueno que haya gente ayudandolos! ❤️
Way way better deciplined than humans 😍
This has me in tears of joy and of sorrow .Namal is astonishing All do have manners and a quiet dignity .. as do the staff here .. If I understand correctly each of these is orphaned due t traps and hunting ie HUMANS ... Thank goodness for such organizations *
Request these orphanage to love and cuddle these babies so that they can forget all the trauma.Elephants also needs affection.
They have a policy of keeping distance to discourage them becoming attached and reliant on humans, since they’re to be released back to the wild. Little Namal is the exception, since he’s too fragile to be ever released.
Save wild animals for future generations
Love all, Serve all
Good job by those people....May God bless them...
C est extraordinaire c est des betes magnifiques ❤❤❤😚😚
Narrator's voice is smooth as butter ♡

Cute
Good job
Incrível o comportamento destes animais...Como respeitam e sabem quando devem ir beber o leite esperando pela sua vez, que belo exemplo nos dão a nós humanos não é? Devíamos ter mais respeito por eles!!!!
I’m assuming they’re being fed milk obtained from cattle? I can’t imagine how one would milk an elephant lol
I thought the same thing too when I first fell in love with them, lol! Actually they cannot tolerate cows milk. Has too much fat in it. Eles natural diet consists of no fat.
If you've the chance (and haven't already, lol) Go to DSWT David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust page! Dame Daphne Sheldrick developed a specific milk that most places adopted. Coconut milk and infant formula is what most consists of. Once you go visit it, warning because OMG, they are the absolute top of true care of orphans!
(No malice in my statement whatsoever next) I am not a big fan of this place because ele's need to suckle and the tube down their throats seems cold. I've also seen that there is no proof that withholding affection from them hinders their success upon return to the wild.
@nuren I agree that wild elephants are best left wild.
@nuren no, that is NOT what DSWT does. DSWT takes in and replaces the herd. They stay by them as the mother would. They guide and protect as well as encourage them to maintain healthy family bonds. They are moved to another place where they slowly introduce them to Wild Eles and Ex-Orphans. The Ex orphans come and know when new ones arrive. They decide when it's the right time to go back into the wild. If they come back to visit, great. If they do not, that is also great. Many go off, mate and bring their babies back. The caregivers do not touch them as they did when the orphans were around.
@nuren they would die if not taken in.
Wonder of Asia in Sri Lanka ❤️🇱🇰
Welcome to sri lanka🙏
I love elephants because of my dad's friend work in that place and I would let an elephant come with to UK
Wow.😃
doing a great job by serving them
These creatures are better than most of the humans!!
Nice viedo it is so difficult to manage them without mother
Life..😃
Scri Lanka beautiful orphan nursery
They're so civil. Why can't humans be like that
Cause those humans are vegans
Because humans are stupid. They're driven to war, sex, religion and violence. They will murder each other for no reason than their own entertainment!
Ed Regis you should leave society and go all monk with your god. It will be better for everyone that way.
❤
thumbnail was me in college having a meal of liquid bread.
Save the poor elephant 💚🐘💚
No. of reasons to visit Sri Lanka keep increasing.

These babies behave better than many kids
These babies are so cute but is very sad they don't have a mom to teach them everything
can we visit this orphanage? please let me know where it is
You can visit Sri Lanka to see them live
I saw a reportage that in Africa the babys are fed milk with a bottle . The keeper holds the bottle and at the same time stroke the baby. What i just saw there was no contact with the baby .
Elephants and owls are my favorite animals especially elephants i love them🐘🦉
Owls are magnificent, elephants bring mr me joy
All the dislikes come from poachers
Is there a documentary to this??.
I find it sad tho.. not much human physical contact xc
But I understand them going to the wild xc
This is in Sri Lanka. Elephant transit home.
There is no job better than serving animals.
I love Elephants so much.. May God protect these beautiful inocent animals from Evil humans🐘❤️🙏
These Elephants act better than some human's.... Just imagined if this was,
"BLACK FRIDAY"!!!!, The day after Thanksgiving, if this was a bunch of HUMANS they're will be shoving, pushing, fighting, cursing, trampling over the old and very young ... They will
be of the hook!!, EVERYBODY THAT RACE INTO THOSE STORES ON BLACK FRIDAY JUST TO GET A BETTER DEAL, I SAY, WELL TAKE A LESSON FROM THE ANIMAL KINGDOM...
"THE ELEPHANTS"...
Where is this located?
In Srilanka
Ok, where can I donate money to this shelter? Next barrel's on me, guys!
What do wild elephants eat?
Plug Industries Well calves drink mamas milk till they're weaned. Adults travel long distances eating fruit, tree bark, grass, small plants
Up to 170kg of food daily... they are vegan:))
