Golden Moments with Khanyisa and the Jabulani Herd

- Golden Khanyisa moments in Golden light!
A morning filled with lots of special moments, starting from the moment Khanyisa did her morning dash from the orphanage into the loving trunks of Bubi and Lundi.
They set off past the closest dam to the stables, passing Zebras along the way, and stopping for a brief refreshment. They carried on, walking deeper into the reserve (the reserve is 17 000 Hectares - approx 42000 Acres in size).
The kind morning sun magically framed many sweet elephant moments and highlighted their impressive dusting techniques (Khanyisa's included!)
Khanyisa tried a few times to lie down and play in the sand, but Kumbura and Limpopo (two younger cows of the herd) were not very happy about that, being very protective over her. They kept trying to lift her up, and at times their anxiousness to do so made them a little bit rough, especially Limpopo.
At one stage Limpopo decided to join Khanyisa and lay down with her, but as soon as she did that, Khanyisa got up and walked away, just like a young toddler would do!
There were too many moments not to share, so we have a nice and lengthy video for you to enjoy the moments with us! Enjoy.

I love Elephant so much 🐘❤🙏
Love these magnificent beings & little Khanyisa too! 🐘🖤🐘🖤🐘
I'm on the other side of the world and I adore this little elephant. When the sun is behind her you can really see how fuzzy she is! I'm so happy the herd is so sweet to her. And she loves them--she's so excited when she sprints to them :) Thank you so much for these wonderful videos of elephants free to be elephants!
Edit: I'm beginning to think Khanyisa plops down on the ground so much for the attention from the herd! Like a toddler who figures out that doing something cute gets the attention of the grownups & makes them giggle. Everytime she plops down she's immediately the focus of at least one grownup..sometimes two or three :)
So sweet she has everyone looking out for her.
Ikr? She's so little, and they all surround her and touch her 💗
What a Beautiful video! So many wonderful moments but I was particularly happy to see tender moments between Khanyisa and Timisa . And delighted Timisa is her old (or should I say "young"!) self again 😊👍🏼. My brave boy Fish sharing a moment with Sunshine too. Thank you Adine for another stunning video. And Thank You Owen and all the guys doing such a great job👍🏼🙏 Love you all 😘🤗
So glad you like it, Jan - we loved this one too - lots of super sweet moments! And FIshan is just a gentleman of note - a great choice you had in fostering!
Thank you for sharing and for giving so many people the hope we had lost. Not just from this covid-19, but in general.
I watch these from my bed where I spend 80% of my life.
My mother loved and collected everything Elephant " BUT NEVER EVER IF IT HAD ANY IVORY ON THEM".
I LIVE VERY ALONE AND ISOLATED and watching these makes my day.
How refreshing to see any animals that man has played a huge roll in ruining their habitat, and to see them living their best life is unreal.
I love how she runs over to the herd every morning so excited to see them. 😅🤗🤗
Its the sweetest!
Yes and they wait for her. I love it ❤
This is an amazing herd. I so enjoy all the videos and the caretakers.
Yes, its like mommy i had a good sleep so can i go play
Sonia Downey I love her trot. She’s so excited every day to see her family. I love it. HERD you guys are doing a fantabulous (my invention means more than fabulous/fantastic)job.
So impressive to see a tiny tiney elephant run with joy to two immense elephants moving with grace and steadiness!
Love how the herd waits for her and protects her🥰. You are all wonderful for taking care of orphans!
Thank you, Liz!
Give baby Timisa some love too she’s still a baby she was the youngest khanyisa s aunties are ready to do Heimlich maneuver on her Kumbura was like “not on my time get up breathe “same maneuver they do on the new born elephants 🐘🐘🐘 by any means possible “get them infants up”these amazing creatures are tooo funny 😁 😂🤣🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘❤️💕❤️
We have to watch with love and humour - and bless, Limpopo and Kumbura are still young, and have not had children of their own, so somethings stress them out easily. But all with love
@@herdelephantorphanage it's my understanding that you use contraception so how could Limpopo and Kumbura have babies of their own? Not judging, just asking so I understand.
Raine Devereaux Kumbura and Limpopo haven’t had babies.
Right, Herd commentary is simply making a point to hat the younger females can overreact and as mentioned before this videos, kumbura's overly mother instinct can even overwhelm Khanysia. She gets her trunk around Khanysia and sometimes won't let her go.
Timisa and Khanyisa together is just the cutest thing...it's quite the pair! Timisa is just super patient with teaching the new little one! Is Limpopo allowing her to feed as well? They are such a noble animal, as far as family values and caring for one another. Great camera work Adine! Limpopo laid down with Khanyisa, then Khanyisa took off! What a stinker! Kumbura stayed with little one til the end! Thank you HERD!
Kumbura wouldn't leave her side! and Limpopo was allowing her to suckle, but it is still an unnatural action for her, so its a bit awkward, but likes that Khanyisa tries sometimes!
@@herdelephantorphanage it's just amazing how stately and noble...if only we could all have hearts like the elephant! You all do such great work capturing their lives, and sharing the learning/relationships that go on amongst the tribe/herd that melts our hearts. I also appreciate that you take the time to involve the community that watches your videos, and respond to our comments! Keep up the great work and have a great week!!
Would the bulls ever actually hurt the baby? It seems the females always move in when I make comes near
I thought it was funny when Khanyisa stuck her trunk in Timisa's ear and Timisa gave her a side look lol
I have just fell in love with them 😍💕😍💕
We understand :-)
This young ellie has come along way from her initial start with you and the Jabulani Herd is right there helping you. I'm amazed how you can walk with those gentle giants and you have found a way to communicate with them. I would have been a bit more apprehensive especially around that big male bull. Kudo's to the team.
To the people who "dislike" why are you watching and I am so amazed that there are thousand of people just like me who are amazed at this Herd - the baby - and the wonderful education being taught by Adine. I learn something new every day and can never wait until tomorrow for my next lesson about these magnificent animals.
You have such a nice way of how you say things.
Thank you for sharing these beautiful moments.
Our pleasure - thank you for watching!
My Mother was thrilled that she fostered the baby for a month! To everyone else reading this, it was so easy to purchase it for a gift, and my Mum got a beautiful certificate with a pictur💗.
I adore how she learns by watching and copying, and how gentle and attentive everyone is with her. Its just all so beautiful 💞💓
I love this beautiful elephant family & so happy she has so much love, she will be wonderful now! God bless you 🙏
Wonderful footage again especially 8.17 onwards when the sun is coming through giving silhouettes of the lovely elephants. Very enjoyable video.
Love to fishan..what a trooper
He's a super elephant!
Look at “Khanyisa running to the herd don’t forget make sure you give “Timisa some love too please she’s our baby girl 🍼 also don’t want her to feel left out we love them both they’re both gorgeous Limpopo is a riot 😅🤣😂 LOVES Khanyisa I think he’s in amazement at her size she’s sooo tiny 🍼 this herd is fantastic can we get their individual histories I thank you 🙏🏾 for the updates and videos God bless all y’all 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 be safe
Hi Theresa! You should head over to our playlist "the Jabulani Herd" where we have some of the videos of each elephant that Jabulani has made. You will enjoy it
Seems like they welcomed her with opened ‘arms’ when she arrived
If there's no 'tree-to-go', a whole bunch of 'branches-to-go' will do, too. 😆
haha! too true!
Lovely how the older aunties take in and help the orphans.
God bless you and your unwavering care for HIS creatures. I am going to set up a donation monthly for your group for my little contribution from Texas 🇨🇱. Love and peace my brothers & sisters ❤.

Thank you - we are glad you like them!
You all are doing a great work.. ❤️👍👍
I love her sprint ❤️🎉

Thanks a lot to all of you for such a beautiful Report. Its the best Film ever. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you all for sharing their lives with all of us. They are all so beautiful!
Boy if not loved I don't know what is!!🙋❤
No nap for her
Wen she mimics her big sister my heart melted!
The sweetest moments!
Same here. She is watching, and learning so much from her!
Elephants are very loving and social. He is just a cutie. Glad they accepted little guy. What a great loss if we were to loose the magnificent animals
I never thought I could get so emotionally invested in an elephant on YT, but here I am. Bless you all for your kindness and care to all of them. ❤🐘🙏
Elephant paradise! 💕💕💕💕
💕💕
Heartwarming bless x
khanyisa is beyond adorable, just those morning walks to her hERD is the reason why she is called SUNSHINE, i just CANT with her cute legs her cute bum bum, her running to her HERD or laying on the grass happily AND my favorite is when she is at the lake just having fun dipping in the water so happy so so free i see this baby girl looking around to her allmothers who are always with her when she is swimming and she is absolutely smiling at them with love and absolute happiness it never fails to have me teary eyed everytime , for me there is nothing more wholesome than seeing animals happy in the wild where they BELONG thanks to everyone who works so hard to provide this, and its lovely to see the love between her and Adine.
thank you for saving them, timisa is beautiful, those big eyes of hers, and Kumbura wanting baby K to get up its nothing but her love for her and her instincts kicking in, she is the most incredible allpmother if she has a baby of her own someday we know it will be the absolutely happiest day for Kumbura sweet girl, we love you
you are all angels in my eyes, the best our world has the BEST💖💖💖💖💖💖 (excuse my bad english)
Watching these videos always makes me happy
Learning to chew those branches
Timisa and Khanyisa have found friends in each others, so nice.
From the videos I've seen, Limpopo takes care of Khanyisa. She probably didn't think it's time to roll in the dirt now.
I think it's incredible that you can distinguish all the adults from one another!
So precious. I don’t know why anyone would ever want to hurt an elephant. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your care and for those videos with descriptions)
Want to profoundly thank you for bringing us all these moments we would never have known without you;
K running out to be with her elephant family and them waiting for her.....this will never grow old for me🥰 love how the adult ellies never let the toddler out of their sight. So protective and loving💕
I love to watch the elephants get upon a tree, and get a good scratch in lol 😂. It reminds me of those times when my back itches it that one spot that my hands can’t reach, and the brush just is not long enough. I find a spot up against the wall, and scratch, away until,mothers itch has stopped! YEP, YEP...RUGHT THERE...🤗🤗🤗
nothing better than hitting the sweet spot!!! :-)
God they are just amazing creatures. As soon as Khanyisa starts to wander even the slightest bit, there’s the herd to tell her, “ hey, get your butt back here.” So cool.
GOD!!!! I LOVE them! ♥️
I am in absolute ❤ with her her and her family! 🥰
your videos are spectacular!!! thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Priceless watching them
The touching of each other..the closeness...beautiful to watch..🐘🐘🐘👄👄🙂🙂🙂❤❤❤❤
Слоны уникальные животные , как они оберегают малыша)))))
Really got a hoot of her smacking when there is a close up of her eating! Precious baby. So unknowing! God bless you for being there for all of them!
Gorgeous elephants. All abusers take note: This is the way it should be, no chains, no bullhooks, no elephant rides, no fear, no pain, no suffering. Well done everyone ❤
I love watching all your videos.
Thank you!!
Just like a Mom to not let you take a nap😃
At 1:38 Jabulani pushes somebody. It looked like one of the snacks he was carrying was dragging on the ground and the one beside him went to pick it up and he thought they were trying to steal his food, lol.
LOL! :)
Will a nursing mom let little Khanyisa nurse? I notice she likes to go looking for milk lol. At what age will you let her stay out with the herd all day and night? It is so cool how protective they are over her when she is not even one of their own. Goes to show how caring these gentle giants are. You guys are awesome for what you do!! God bless you all.
0:00 khanyisa just busted out of the fence
From that stand point..magnificent! The sun peering through back drop amazing...♥️🐘👄👍
Non so se sono fissata ma io li amo molto e quando li guardo mi sento bene.Grazie a voi li posso conoscere ancora meglio .Hanno tutto.Amore ore la prole per il gruppo.E come corrono tutti se uno è in difficoltà .Si sono proprio fissata per gli elefanti❤❤❤
I never thought I'd enjoy watching the elephants as much as I do. The way they use their trunks is so amazing. And I love the way you film the video as you're walking among them and interacting with them; makes me feel like I'm right there!
What are the mountains in the distance at the dam?
Awesome... I love how the elephants are so in tune with Khanyisa, so ready to protect her... the awareness is awesome
Khansyia lol lol gets her pink colouring darken to blend in...but her beautiful blue eyes makes her especially different...to the others. Magnificent elephants seems well aware ...little one is very unique to them. Therefore, protecting her with their life...as well as the keepers and adine.
i wonder how they perceive the humans who spend all day with them, do they see you as part of the herd?
Had to make another comment, Im suffering with a swollen gum, as my cheek is also slightly swollen, just got antibiotics, anyhow it is be quite painful, but you no what, I cannot stop smiling watching the ellys, & how perfectly brilliantly, by taking care of cheeky lil Baba, you would never known, by looking, in a million years you're never known the trauma that occurred by that bloody snare, really is such a pleasure watching all the group, taking care as a whole. 🐘♥️🐘🐘😇👌🤭👈👍🙌✌️🤚👉🐘👈❤️🥰🤗Xx
Khanyisa has really funny antics. She's so unique, unlike any other elephant I've ever seen. She's really a sprite, cute, funny, affectionate elephant.
Timisa fully recovered 💗
Yes! I'm so glad! Guess you are too! 😊👍🏼🙏💞
Yes she has a bit of sore wound - but most of all yes, she has recovered!
Khanyisa is a brave baby...
super sunday !!! thanks guys
Our pleasure!!
I simply enjoy watching the elephants.
This might be my favorite video.
In our truly messed up world, the elephants are a bit of kindness and caring. And their life isn't lived at a frenetic pace. They do what they do and life goes on.
The carers and Andine benefit from this as much as their charges.
I thank you
Blessed be
Thank you very much. This is one of our favourites too!
To walk along the elephants makes my day, thank you so much for filming it for us in the USA.
A Wonder,god bless all Animals💓
Beautiful to watching the embracing of the herds to each other.....❤❤❤❤
That is the cutest thing how she runs out to her el family 😄❤❤❤❤
I just love this.oh boy.
It's both funny and touching to see how khanyisa runs to the hers and how tender, caring and protecting they are with her, but why is Khanyisa kept apart from the herd at night?
Edited. Couldn't it be a problem to have a bull constantly arounf the herd? Arn't bulls "nomadic loners" unless in muhst?, And what happens with the calfs around when he gets into muhst?
1:53 all three elephants reached out to stop the baby from straying off path, such a great moment
KhanYisa ❣️😍😘😘😘😘😘🐘😄😉😇
Just adorable...she is so special it makes my heart melt watching her and the whole heard..... thanks for sharing
Kanisyia si distinctive....magnificent elephants around her tiny frame..♥️♥️♥️♥️🐘👄
I wish I was an elephant instead of a human
We totally understand that feeling!
I wish HERD would devote as much attention to the older orphan, Timisa, as they do to Khanyisa who is undoubtedly adorable, but no more lovable than the young Timisa!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
🐘🙂👍🌍♥️👄
Soooo sweet ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️I wish I could be there between the beautiful sweethearts ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gentle giants!
Another wonderful time spent with these majestic, beautiful ellies. Thank you for all you do. 💖💖💖💖💖💖
It does my heart good to see how far Khanyisa has come, thanks to all of you
This is amazing to watch.
Thank you !
I'm wondering how Fishan broke his leg?
It's a miracle that it healed isn't it? 💕💕
I just can't get enough,oh how I love these beautiful animals., Thank You All.
While on daily walks what dangers or concerns have you all ran into?
Kids these days!!
Right!? :-)
I guess she still get's her bottle.
Yes - and will do until she is 4 - 5 years!
Khanyisa is such a society girl. She has to say hello and be seen with everyone in the herd.
Oh goodness, duo lie down
