In a wildlife rescue and rehabilitation centre in the Northeast of India, there are six orphaned creatures—ages 1.5 months to 6 months—who are currently receiving care, and await release into the wild in due course. They are an elephant, a rhinoceros, a wild buffalo, a clouded leopard, a swamp deer, and a hog badger. They were found in four different kinds of perilous situations, including a flooded ditch, attacks by poachers that killed the mother, a river in spate, and dangerous proximity to human habitat. After a few weeks in the rescue centre, each creature demonstrated one characteristic trait that stood out above all others: one was mischievous, another aggressive, a third shy, the fourth retiring, one fretful and the last one frisky.
