It is much the same as any other city would be, large buildings, many people of all colors, and we have a differing climate almost daily. The Nairobi Nursery is located in, of course, Nairobi. It is a temporary, or permanent, safe haven for our local feral animals. The most commonly seen animal to come into the Nursery are Elephants. Most elephants are orphaned after their mothers, or sometimes entire herds, are wiped out by poachers who kill the herd for their ivory tusks.
Ivory is still very valuable here on the hidden markets.
It is illegal, and punishable by jail. Each keeper is assigned a single elephant, and they must care for this orphan as though it were their own family. As keepers, we form an extremely tight bond with these creatures and can read their body language easily. It takes us both time to get used to each other, but once it happens, both the keeper and orphan are hard to seperate.
