Chamilandu was only 1.5 years old when her mother was shot by poachers, leaving her a helpless orphan in South Luangwa National Park. After receiving help and care from the Department of National Parks and Wildlife as well as local conservation NGOs, Chamilandu was flown to the Kafue Release Facility in November 2007. Now Chamilandu has made history by becoming the first orphaned elephant to give birth to a wild-born calf (Mutaanzi David) in Zambia.
