Wednesday Evening With Kenya

July 9, 2025

After a break, Scott is back with a quick check-in with Kenya. She’s had a long day and is very tired, and she seems perhaps a little overstimulated. There’s a lot happening right now and she has to process it all. We think it’s best for her to have some rest before she strikes out into the habitat. As Scott says, we don’t always make our best decisions when we’re tired.

She’s had snacks and water and got a bath with the hose. Kenya has also been enjoying reclining in the dirt and dusting to her heart’s content. Pupy makes an appearance in the video, curiously looking over the fence at Kenya. They’ll get a chance to meet, more than likely tomorrow.

    Me impresiona su piel curtida y marcada por tantos años de cautiverio. Se que en poco tiempo podremos ver que si piel cambia y con ellos su apariencia. Se verá como lo que realmente es una chica brillante bajo el sol de Brasil! Gracias Scott por tus videos y tus explicaciones para poder conocer un poco mas sobre los elefantes y gracias a todos los que hacen de estos rescates una realidad palpable para todos nosotros. ❤️

    Happy Independence Day to Kenya and Argentina. It’s been a great day, and I can’t wait to see Kenya tomorrow, I cannot imagine she won’t venture into the habitat. I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed for Kenya and Pupy, at whatever pace may work for them. Have good night everyone, humans, too, LOL And dogs, and kitties, and goats, and sheep, and……and………..and………….and……..

    Scott, and the entire ROAD crew must be exhausted. Congrats to ALL of them on a VERY successful trip, and its wonderful that Kenya seems to be adjusting well in the last few hours……and its wonderful that Pupy knows another elephant is in the neighborhood…
