Elephants and Green Clay

A completely natural substance, the application of green clay on open wounds speeds up the body's natural healing process and importantly, protects an open wound, substantially limiting the chance of infection.

Right now, we are needing to apply green clay daily to a number of orphaned animals in our care, including Max the black rhino and Mwashoti (pictured). Mwashoti was rescued with a cable snare cutting deep into the joint on the lower part of his front right leg. This severe injury requires constant attention and one key component in the treatment of Mwashoti's wound is the regular application of green clay.

You can help the healing, by purchasing green clay and ensuring we have it in Kenya for Mwashoti, Alamaya, Max and other orphans in need - to help, please visit our special gift shop at: http://giftshop.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/elephant-and-rhino-orphans-project/product/74-greenclaytreat

Oh, his poor foot and leg still look so swollen and angry! Although it is such an improvement from when you all rescued him! Thank you for tending to his leg and all else that you do!
