Day 3 With Baby: A Quick Morning Check-in

June 20, 2026

It’s day 3 of Baby’s trip home to sanctuary. Scott and team check in from the road. Cell and satellite service have been spotty, but he took a quick minute to report that Baby is eating and drinking well. There’s still no official ETA but they’re hoping for an afternoon sanctuary arrival.

    Since when is the vice president more important than a famous Baby girl?? The police obviously have their priorities mixed up!

    Another extraordinary journey home for a captive born elephant. As I said on YouTube & X, Sanctuary is not a magic bullet that will cure years of abuse, neglect, health & mental traumas, however, whether their time is measured in mere months or many years, the time at Sanctuary is infinitely better than where they were 🐘🌿❤️ Happy forever after Baby girl✨️

    I do have a question, when looking at the habitat map I see where the 5 Asian girls are buried, but do not see markers for Kenya & Pupy?

      If you are talking about the color-coded map, that was created before Pupy and Kenya ever came. It will be updated!
