ABOUT
Dame Daphne Sheldrick was a Kenyan author, conservationist, and expert in animal husbandry. From 1955 to 1976, she was co-warden of Kenya's Tsavo National Park where she reintegrated orphaned elephants into the wild.
Sheldrick was named as one of the 35 most significant conservationists ever. She won the BBC's Lifetime Achievement Award and had an Honorary Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery from Glasgow University. In 2002 the Kenyan government made her a Moran of the Burning Spear, and in 2006 she was made a Dame of the British Empire for her services to conservation work. Following her husband's death in 1977, she ran the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust with her daughter, Angela.
