HELP US FEED FIELA

Because our little Fiela was rejected by her mum we have now got to bottle feed her until she is about 2 years old. At the moment she consumes 12 litres of baby formula milk a day, and after 3 months will be consuming 30 litres a day! This equates to almost R15,000 per month! See to how we got to this figure, go the the full post – Help us feed Fiela.

If you would like to donate to the feed Fiela fund, please follow the link below that is located on the African Elephant Research Unit’s facebook page. Or you can contact AERU directly by e-mailing   aeru@knysnaelephantpark.co.za.
