Human animal conflict is an increasing threat to the African Elephant population. Baby Elephants are often the victims of these conflicts and find themselves without a family. Through our partnership with Game Rangers International, a non-profit conservation organisation, Lilayi Lodge is giving them a home and a family at the Lilayi Elephant Nursery with the hope of re-introducing them to the wild. This is all achieved with the ongoing support from the Department of National Parks and Wildlife. These baby elephants are fed a milk formula every 3 hours. The lunchtime feeding can be viewed daily by the public between 11h45-13h00 from the viewing platform located near the entrance to the Lilayi Game Park. The small entry fee of K50 for adults & K20 for children under 16 for this activity is a donation towards the project. As an in-house guest of Lilayi Lodge you have the unique opportunity to go Behind The Scenes “BTS” and get a first hand look at the project as well as contribute to the conservation efforts by assisting the elephant keepers in caring for these baby Elephants. The charge for this unique experience goes 100% towards the project and wildlife conservation in Zambia.
