Portrait of Ely    Much to our delight Ely seems to be sticking around. We've filmed and photographed him out in the western side of the Park. He is still with the families that spend time in Tanzania and hasn't yet met up with his birth family. We are so happy to see him again. He is very calm and seems to recognize my old Land Rover. He should--it was with him the day he was born and frequently for the next 10 years of his life. Here are three photos of him looking handsome and then casual. In the third one he is dusting.

He looks great and it's good to read how he is dowing now. I still remember the film in wich he was born, so touching and so releaved he finally could walk on his feet. Son of Echo you became a handsome boy....

I still feel the sting of grief every time I look at the posted photos of Echo's remains, so thank you so very much for this dose of joy in the form of her magnificent son and his life-affirming reminder of the persistence of survival,
loyalty, heredity and love. And I thank Ely for his well-timed appearance.
Beautiful

certainly is a handsome young elephant. I too can imagine that he will be a magnificent mature bull in 20 or 30 years time. Is it known who his father was? Dionysus perhaps?
Many thanks Cynthia for posting the pictures.

I can't help but imagine how even more handsome and awe-inspiring he could be 20-30 years from now. And I know the researchers and supporters of the project will work their hardest to see that happen.
