The Guardian Elephant Warriors of Reteti

Ami Vitale, Katy-Robin Garton | 2019 | 4 min.

2020 Official Selection

Wild & Scenic Film Festival School Program, 9-12th Grade

Reteti Elephant Sanctuary is the first ever community-owned and run elephant sanctuary in Africa. This oasis where orphans grow up, learning to be wild so that one day they can rejoin their herds, is as much about the people as it is about elephants. It’s a powerful story about the changing relationship between people and the animals they are protecting.
