Here is the Story of Burra the elephant

Burra was born in June 2000. At 8 months old he was found trapped by a snare. The steel cable around his neck had almost cut one ear in half. Luckily rangers removed the snare and Burra was taken to the stockades in Tsavo East National Park to receive veterinary care. His keepers were worried that he would be unable to swallow milk as his throat had been so badly constricted. However, after several hours' persuasion, Burra managed to feed. Burra has now recovered and lives with the older orphans in Tsavo National Park. He has a very calm temperament, often discouraging fights between the other elephants.
