health care in the year 20 to 20 will undoubtedly be blessed with incredible advances. But there is little doubt that the provisions of that nursing care will still be based upon the bedrock of values and procedures instigated by the world's pioneering nurse, Florence Nightingale. Horses have roamed these streets for as long as anyone can remember. It's thought it began when people moved from the countryside to work in the cities copper industry and their horses came with them. Even a decade ago, there were still over 600 horses living in Swansea, but now those who keep them in the city are a dying breed. Traditionally, people tied up or tethered their horses close to their homes. But now the local council is cracking down on this. There's one thing that binds the Swansea horse communities together above everything else that drives coming together to drive horses and carts is an event used to mark every occasion from births to deaths. On the first leg, Tracker will lead the drive through the centre of the city down towards the sea front, where even more horses are waiting to join them. The first stop is at the marina where Philippa, the vet, has turned out to enjoy the spectacle. After a brief pit stop, it's time to hit the road again. The second leg takes the drive past Swansea Prison, where a few absent friends are residing. Behind the walls, a young elephant takes her first wobbly steps after birth in the Heartland of Kilimanjaro. Named after its majestic mountain, also the highest peak in all of Africa, this little elephant will enjoy all that the region has to offer, including semi arid savannas and wetlands. Growing up admits several diverse ecosystems that connect the circle of life in Kilimanjaro. Other inhabitants, great and small of this beautiful Heartland are lions, cheetahs, giraffes and an assortment of Avery creatures such as the Eagle and Hawk, all of which will influence the life of our little friend. Treading carefully behind her mother, the young elephant learns to follow her elders, gaining a sense of safety and belonging. She is the newest members of her herd and will someday established herself as the leader of her own hood. But her time will come soon enough
