Studio 94世界新聞攝影展 / 10.27-11.18
這是位在肯亞北部的一個大象孤兒院。照片裡的保育員Mary Lengees正輕撫著來到園內的第一隻幼象Suyian。它讓我想到前年在世界新聞攝影展展牆上我們分享的一段話：
「永遠讓人們在與我們相遇後過得更好。
擁抱受傷的弱者，親吻破碎的靈魂，
友愛失落的人們，並關心那寂寞的眾生。」
Always leave people better than you found them.
Hug the hurt. Kiss the broken.
Always leave people better than you found them.
Befriend the lost. Love the lonely.

在肯亞北部桑布魯族祖先的故鄉，當地社區共同經營了「雷特提大象生態園區」，照顧幼小的孤象與棄象，並協助牠們重回野地。這個象群孤兒院於2016年創立，而在此工作的男人們都是現役或退役的桑布魯族戰士。從前當地人認為大象可能威脅人類與其財產，因此無意拯救象群；而現在他們開始與動物們產生了新的互動關係。

Orphaned and abandoned elephant calves are rehabilitated and returned to the wild, at the community-owned Reteti Elephant Sanctuary in northern Kenya. The sanctuary is located in the ancestral homeland of the Samburu people. The elephant orphanage was established in 2016 by local people, and the men working there are, or were at some time, Samburu warriors. In the past, local people weren’t much interested in saving elephants, which can be a threat to humans and their property, but now they are beginning to relate to the animals in a new way.
