The girl who has dedicated her life to saving elephant orphans in the Zambia|為了大象遠走尚比亞的女孩-Rachael Murton

As she strides purposefully through an African forest in leopard-print Wellingtons, Essex girl Rachael Murton is pursued by six excitable elephants. Together, the lumbering animals weigh a combined 500 stone, but Chelmsford-born Rachael retains her composure.

For these young orphaned elephants, this devoted young British woman is their surrogate mum, and each wants to be first for a cuddle. Tenderly, these colossal beasts — years from being fully grown — raise their trunks to 33-year-old Rachael's face, seeming to wrap her in an embrace.


你這一輩子,願意為了什麼堅持而努力?一名英國女孩 Rachael Murton 為了守護大象遠走他鄉,來到遙遠的非洲尚比亞(Zambia)。非洲盜獵大象的現象一直都很嚴重,如果市場需求不停止,盜獵對於象群的威脅只會與日俱增。Rachael Murton,決定不再只是坐著感傷自己什麼都做不了,而是為了中止這樣殘忍的現象做出具體行動!
