Its so true I am always amazed at this, knowing their strength and power and yet they never bump into the little ones the same as they were with Khaniysa, they know exactly where they are at any given time with their trunks and tails and their senses......sooooo cool and endearing!
That fantastic moment when every adult swing into the protective circle for the little calf. Just like a huge group hug, and saying welcome to the family, you are safe with us. It makes you heart sing
wait until you see the real welcome to the family. Did you see Khanyisa's lovely welcome? At first I thought they were charging her lol. th-cam.com/video/2sYITOIBRvE/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=HERDElephantOrphanageSouthAfrica this HERD's link to her greeting.
Okay. I admit it. When Setombe encouraged Baby P to suckle, tears popped out of my eyes🫢! These baby introductions are exciting and wonderful but they're kinda stressful too. I find myself sitting on the edge of my chair! So so happy our beautiful Herd is opening their hearts to Phabeni 💖💖💖. We knew they would. Great work Adine and our amazing Carers!
I absolutely agree with your comment cause I didn’t think there was gonna be a problem after the acceptance of Khanysia. This elephant Herd definitely has a lot of family love for each other and their young too.❤️🥰🐘👏🏻👏🏻
How selfless these gentle giants are. 😊Their hearts are bigger than them. So relaxing to watch them. Phabeni is now the pampered baby of the Herd. So lovely.
Phabeni ls loved very very much, Lundi is your new Mama for sure, beautiful interactions mostly, the way these beauties move to protect our Boy brings tears to the eyes. Much love to one and all, little extra for Phabeni 🩵💙🩵
I am in awe of elephant sensitivity. Even if they can't see the little one, they know he is very close, and they step so carefully and gently. They are so emotional too, Listening to their rumbles and purrs, I get the impression they are also gossiping.😊
I think they are comforting Phabeni and also discussing him amongst themselves rather pridefully “Look what gorgeous eyes he has. And that is the absolutely cutest trunk I have ever laid my eyes on”. “He’s very intelligent and brave! He knew exactly which of us to approach and how!” “I believe Phabeni has the big guys wrapped around his little tail! Already!”
When you see little Phabeni next to the herd, it simply serves to show how very tiny and vulnerable he is. It’s both adorable and amazing to see these gentle giants move to love and support this baby boy - all while gently stepping around him to ensure his safety. They’re great aunties and uncles. ❤❤❤
How amazing that while African elephants can't be trained, these rescued beauties understand the benevolence of the humans and accept and appeciate them.
The back up security is amazing! Sweet baby is where he left off with his mom...still needing the comfort and care. All the Bigs around the little tyke as gentle as butterflies.💖
Phaby is so, so small and brave amongst these big, but gentle Ellies, who are showing interest, care, love and protection. They never stop to impress me and how much humans could lean from them. ❤❤❤😊😊😊
So many rumbles! No doubt they love having a baby around! Klassire can barely contain her excitement on having a little brother.You have an amazing family Phabeni who love you!💕🐘
I watched a short video of the 4 cheetahs earlier on. The ranger said that Adine hand reared them. My goodness,Adine ,you're a Mommy to a lot of babies. You definitely were born for this job. My respect .👍👍🐆🐆🦏🦏🐘🐘🐕🐕👏👏👏💖💖💖💖💖
Setombe inviting Phabeni to suckle will now live rent-free in my mind. Having watched your videos for years it was wonderfully extraordinary! 🥰 The little one doesn't realize how special he is 💜
Wow, now that was amazing! Lundi is patient to let little Phabeni go to Setombe who desires to get right in there to be an allomother! Phabeni truly likes and feels safe with Setombe.I was so surprised how much! Makes me wonder who will end up being the main Momma.This is just wonderful to see
I ❤️ the extended..longer videos. They really let the viewer have a good long observation of different elephants & their behaviors. Thank you SO much for these wonderful update. These videos really show the broad & diverse examples of elephant behavior. Thank you all so very much for your dedication & your sharing with all your subs !! 👍👍👍👍👍❤️😍
So beautiful to see them take in Phabeni, I think Setombe wants to be his mother so precious to see her so gentle and loving and wants to be around him. Klaserie is so precious to see a new baby brother this is so amazing and Adine and the carers are awesome. Can't wait for Phabeni to go with the herd for a a walk in the bush when he can explore with his new family ❤❤❤❤🐘🐘🐘🐘 love you all from Canada 🇨🇦
Hello to HERD from USA!!!! Always warms my heart to see your videos, right now there is not a dry eye in our entire family, seeing the herd adopting little Phabeni so sweetly!!
It really looks like Phabeni has his new family. Im so happy for him. Lundi is so amazing with her open arms welcoming him along with Setombe. That was a treat to see that!!!! There always is so much love in these videos. From the elephants to the humans just unconditional love. It brings such joy to my day. Thank you.
We spend so much time with them that they really are like family members and look so distinct to us. Telling them apart from behind though is difficult 😂
@herdelephantorphanage All bums look alike! 😂 Butt (pun intended) some have more tail hair than others. We love you ALL. Thank you so much for all you do to care for this extraordinary HERD. So much love! ❤️🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘❤️
Look on their playlists, they have a video…I believe on each, that details markings to tell them apart. For instance Lundi’s right ear you’ll notice it has a little part that that has some missing on each side, there are other things as well. Some them it’s their tusks, tail hairs, lumps and bumps. I’ll have to go watch them again. I have a hard time telling the majority apart. I had a list that I made but lost it. Very interesting videos.
Setombe and Klaserie will have plenty to think about today...also lots to talk about with the rest of the herd. Klaserie has always had her Mom; kind of change to have to share her, but she's a sweetheart so all will work out. Such a big (and wonderful) surprise from Setombe...out of the blue!!🐘🍼🩵💞🫶🐦🇺🇸
This is amazing 💙🩵💚 Lundi & Setombe…wow, we are so blessed to see Phabeni’s family growing, one Ellie at a time. Thank you Adine, Tigere & all the Carers 💙🩵💚💜🩷❤️ For inviting us to see this very special Jabulani Family moment Warmest regards Fr 🇺🇸🇺🇸
I concur with all the previous commenters in how beautiful this mornings video is, at least its early morning here in Australia and a wonderful way to start the day, but seeing how Klaserie was "being too rough" with Phabeni's ears made me laugh. It was so funny to watch as was seeing Klaserie's trunk going undsr her mother AND everywhere else to get to him! I also laughed seeing Phabeni's little back legs knotted together when he was very comfortable around the other elephants. I wish that I could physically stand next to them and smell them also, but Ill settle for 2nd best and watch them from here! Phabeni is SO tiny and the adult elephants take SUCH a lot of care with making sure that they don't tread on him! Very precious indeed! Thank you HERD!
Oh how our hearts are full as the little one gets to spend time with the herd. Such a beautiful time. So happy. I am in awe of them and of all at HERD. My heart is happy ❤
Must be good to Phabeni's mental development to see himself so accepted by the HERD, with all the females going into fully protective mode by surrounding him and constantly comforting him by seeking the connection with their trunks. A wonderful sight. What a movie!!! Thanks, as always.
So much love being poured on to Phabeni! What I find extremely fascinating is there are barely any moments in the entire visit where there isnt a defensive ring protecting him. Greetings from Canada! 🇨🇦
My morning started out a lil teary eyed (something personal) And now I am smiling These loving ellies have brought a ray of sunshine to me I looove them all so much and I truly love you all humans at HERD
Little Phabeni amongst the all the Giants is breathtaking and so Heart felt. This Herd is another true example of what Makes Elephants so adored. To all the carer's and keepers watching over these treasures in Africa thank you for all you do. I've heard that it is the Elephants that pick out whos qualified to be a carer. That they can read your ❤. God Bless Adine and all She does for all the treasures in Africa.
What a beautiful thing to watch, Lundi was so calm when Phabeni suckled on Setombe, and she was so loving and caring towards Phabeni when she allowed him to suckle from her. Wow, can’t wait to see Tokwes’ introduction!
It must be true that ellies never forget. They all always seem to have immediate empathy w/ the newest orphan & are quite willing to extend the "You welcome to your new family." ❤😊
❤🎉oh so beautiful to see all accepting and protecting little Phabeni. Klasserie @12:00 on, comforting him. Brave boy, so heartwarming. Thank you everyone at HERD! Blessings from Florida. 🐘 🌞!
As I grow very fond of Phabeni, I miss seeing Khanyisa and always wonder where she is during these times. Huge applause for your love and devotion to these beautiful elephants. Thank you for sharing - I'm always learning from watching! Big hugs to all!
I miss her too, but she's part of the big herd now and out foraging, swimming, and loving her life. Will be interesting to watch when she gets to meet her baby brother up close and personal. 🐘🩷🐘🩵
I love that after current videos my you tube plays random continuous videos from the past ( TV Screen). I'm usually doing other things but Khanyisa history streams on my screen. I wear headset for TV due to my late night hours to not disturb neighbors. Therefore I see videos I had not seen in 2021. Khanyisa details never get old. ❤️
All you guys at HERD are fantastic heroes. 2- legged teamwork and 4-legged teamwork,all for that beautiful little boy. He's so lucky. Well done to all of you.We all learn so much from all of you.🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘💖💖💖💖💖
Wow - what a delight to witness all this interaction, emotions, and amazing roles each Ellie plays in the herd. Klaserie is so much like the big sister when mom brings home the new baby from the hospital. Intrigued and protective, but also a bit jealous (?) that mom’s attention is on someone new. And all those rumbles! My favorite part. The boys are all so steady and chill and ready to take on the role of role-model and peacekeeper. I also love what a little climber Phabeni is. It is especially interesting to see how they use their tails to feel Phabeni, too. What fun! Thank you for sharing this with us!
Awww what a great start to my freezing morning here in Eastern 🇨🇦. I always look forward to seeing this beautiful family, with the group of humans that take care of them all…..you are all AWESOME, and thank you so much for sharing Adene. Blessings, light & ❤ ☮️
I am so appreciative to watch these moments. Phabeni looks so happy. Elephants are truly gentle giants❤Phabeni rubbing against Setombe's leg just melted my heart❤
This is the difference between this channel and any other elephant channel that I know of…Adine’s play by play narration explaining the meaning/purpose of the elephants behaviors/movements/ etc. I have learned so much from this channel exactly because of that! I have read a lot of books written by elephant experts, watched thousands of videos about elephants but here is where I can actually see their behaviors in play. It ties everything together! Thank you so very much HERD!!!
This is one of the best videos I have ever seen of the herd. So much love, rumbles and protection from all the big ellies. Setombe really bonded with the little man, it was lovly and heartwarming to see. Much love from Denmark. Copenhagen Zoo just welcomed a newborn calf last night.
This is one of the most amazing moments on the HERD Channel. Adine, Tigere, & all the Carers, thank you soo much for sharing this very special Jabulani family moment. Warmest regards Fr 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Both tense and extremely beautiful at the same time. The way the huge elephants are acting and how tiny the baby is. Such an amazing scene. I must admit I end up holding my breath ❤❤❤.
The swaying trunks and tails, rumbles, suckling, protecting, trunk touches, smelling, crossed legs and even the ear tweak. Amazing and I’m over stimulated myself. ❤ Phabeni. More videos please.
Setombe's daughter was keen on seeing what was happening, it made me love them even more. Elephant personality and character are a real thing. Thank you, for sharing the HERD so we can look into the mysteries of these beautiful animals, too.
We can now see how fragile and small these baby elephants are and the wonderful care they receive to grow. The extreme knowledge and love it takes for the trust. This is truly a lovely video to watch, over my cup of coffee this morning, in Florida. Thanks so much. 💕🇺🇸🌴🌺💗❤️
Phabeni has no idea how blessed she is to have landed up at Herd, her future could have been so different. Thank you Herd for your kindness and love for these majestic animals
Thank you for sharing the adventures of HERD, and for everything you do to bring awareness to these majestic beings. Blessings to the the entire HERD team ❤️
Great job, HERD, your ellies are amazing. Just watching, how gentle and careful they were with Phabeni, is so heartwarming. God’s way is the best way always, he put him in the right place with the right people and a wonderful ellie family. Lots of blessings to you all!!!♥️🍀🐘🥰🙏🏻
Thank you for a comprehensive update on Phabeni. I thank our Good God for how Phabeni has stabilised over the past week. The Herd team is highly skilled, professional, & kind. Caring for our little baby bull with dedication. ❤❤❤ HUGS to all. ❣️ 💕 ❤️
Setombe wants that little boy! We have all gotten to know Lundi through her care for Khanyisa. Maybe now we will get to know Setombe better through her love for Phabeni. This is an extremely interesting dynamic unfolding within the herd. Also looking forward to how the herd raises a bull calf, and how the big bulls play a role in raising him. And Khanyisa's reaction?? Will she want to play with him? She is so friendly and confident, so hoping she will. This is almost like watching a wonderful tv series where we can't wait for the next episode 😊.
THANK YOU ADINE AND ALL HERD CARERS! PHABENI IS HOME AND SAFE NOW! LUNDI IS A GOOD MUM! THE ELEPHANTS ARE ASTOUNDING. SO SMART! SENDING LOVE AND HUGS TO ALL!🐘🦏🐘🦏
It's so amazing to watch this. Most people have no idea about the complexities of elephant relationships and family groups. I find all of this so interesting and love watching.
What a beatiful emotional roller coaster this video was! My mind goes back to Phabeni's first day at the rescue and going in the nursery. We all felt joy and relief he was with HERD 💗 and then sorrow this little baby was so lost and scared. 😢. To see Phabeni with the Herd and being loved on and accepted is so rewarding and glorious! Adine and all with HERD, thank you. Thank you for saving this precious Soul. ~ God bless you all. 🙏

I can almost hear Setombe saying OMG he is is so adorable I want him for myself….😊
Phabeni's confidence with the herd is growing by leaps and bounds! He has a wonderful family.
The quiet Setombe's motherly instinct returns, what a pleasant surprise. Looks like Lundy will have plenty of help. So heartwarming. 🥰
This herd is so amazing! Giants being so tender with that baby bull. Beautiful ❤
This is a beautiful sight indeed! The acceptance of little Phabeni.❤️
I never realized what an intricate process it is to introduce a new baby into a herd, before watching your videos. Literally amazing.🥰
How amazing that while African elephants can't be trained, these rescued beauties understand the benevolence of the humans and accept and appeciate them.
I think Phabeni will be the son Setombe never had! 💞 I was sitting on the edge of my seat many times. Best Wishes to the elephants, Adine & carers!
Yes...think the same. All the more amazing -- she has never been open to mothering any but her own biological babies!
BRAVO, Setombe!
Oh my goodness, seeing how tiny Phabeni is next to the adult elephants and how careful they are around him is so sweet.🐘💖
The back up security is amazing! Sweet baby is where he left off with his mom...still needing the comfort and care. All the Bigs around the little tyke as gentle as butterflies.💖
Phabeni smoothly charmed his way to the hearts of females, who feel compelled to nurture him! 💞Lundi’s gentle movements around Phabeni says so much!
Lindi is so sweet and careful with Phabeni. Very precious, indeed.
Phaby is so, so small and brave amongst these big, but gentle Ellies, who are showing interest, care,
love and protection. They never stop to impress me and how much humans could lean from them.
❤❤❤😊😊😊
❤❤❤
So many rumbles! No doubt they love having a baby around! Klassire can barely contain her excitement on having a little brother.You have an amazing family Phabeni who love you!💕🐘
He’s their baby now!! Can’t wait for him to join the whole herd.

Four cheetahs? Adine IS amazing.
Lundi is such a good mom. They are all keeping the baby safe. He is so tiny and vulnerable. So sweet.
Setombe inviting Phabeni to suckle will now live rent-free in my mind. Having watched your videos for years it was wonderfully extraordinary! 🥰

I wear headset for TV due to my late night hours to not disturb neighbors. Therefore I see videos I had not seen in 2021. Khanyisa details never get old. ❤️
Yes, I miss seeing Khanyisa.
Tiny Phabeni..you are the sweetest little ellie 🐘❤
Amazing. Setombe's gentleness was everything to see. All of them were wonderful. Those rumbles, indeed.
Thank you for this long video.
All you guys at HERD are fantastic heroes. 2- legged teamwork and 4-legged teamwork,all for that beautiful little boy. He's so lucky. Well done to all of you.We all learn so much from all of you.🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘💖💖💖💖💖
Wow - what a delight to witness all this interaction, emotions, and amazing roles each Ellie plays in the herd. Klaserie is so much like the big sister when mom brings home the new baby from the hospital. Intrigued and protective, but also a bit jealous (?) that mom’s attention is on someone new. And all those rumbles! My favorite part. The boys are all so steady and chill and ready to take on the role of role-model and peacekeeper. I also love what a little climber Phabeni is. It is especially interesting to see how they use their tails to feel Phabeni, too. What fun! Thank you for sharing this with us!
Awww what a great start to my freezing morning here in Eastern 🇨🇦. I always look forward to seeing this beautiful family, with the group of humans that take care of them all…..you are all AWESOME, and thank you so much for sharing Adene. Blessings, light & ❤ ☮️
Thanks so much for caring and watching 🇿🇦
I am glad it is going well for the little bull. I am glad you were able to rescue him.
I am so appreciative to watch these moments. Phabeni looks so happy. Elephants are truly gentle giants❤Phabeni rubbing against Setombe's leg just melted my heart❤
This is the difference between this channel and any other elephant channel that I know of…Adine’s play by play narration explaining the meaning/purpose of the elephants behaviors/movements/ etc. I have learned so much from this channel exactly because of that! I have read a lot of books written by elephant experts, watched thousands of videos about elephants but here is where I can actually see their behaviors in play. It ties everything together! Thank you so very much HERD!!!
😊😊😊
All this skin to skin is so healing for Phabeni!...soothing the trauma of the past!😇
This is one of the best videos I have ever seen of the herd. So much love, rumbles and protection from all the big ellies. Setombe really bonded with the little man, it was lovly and heartwarming to see. Much love from Denmark. Copenhagen Zoo just welcomed a newborn calf last night.
Wow! Really? Congrats! Wish good health and long life for the baby!😍🤩🤘👍🙏👶🐘🌻🌷🍀🥂
This is one of the most amazing moments on the HERD Channel. Adine, Tigere, & all the Carers, thank you soo much for sharing this very special Jabulani family moment.
Warmest regards

@@kp8381I did not know that!!! Robbing our elephants gifts of generosity. 😢
Thanks for your kind donation on the website.
Thank you for valuable dollars and your wonderful generosity.
❤❤❤
Both tense and extremely beautiful at the same time. The way the huge elephants are acting and how tiny the baby is. Such an amazing scene. I must admit I end up holding my breath ❤❤❤.
Thank you for this extensive story, this gives so much insight in their personalities and behaviour. Very enjoyable ❤
The swaying trunks and tails, rumbles, suckling, protecting, trunk touches, smelling, crossed legs and even the ear tweak. Amazing and I’m over stimulated myself. ❤ Phabeni. More videos please.
Setombe's daughter was keen on seeing what was happening, it made me love them even more. Elephant personality and character are a real thing. Thank you, for sharing the HERD so we can look into the mysteries of these beautiful animals, too.
We can now see how fragile and small these baby elephants are and the wonderful care they receive to grow. The extreme knowledge and love it takes for the trust. This is truly a lovely video to watch, over my cup of coffee this morning, in Florida. Thanks so much. 💕🇺🇸🌴🌺💗❤️
Klasserie has the best trunk. Very curious girl!
I was thinking the same thing.
😢 যে যে
Love love love elephants
This is so exciting! I love love the rumbles, they have a calming effect on me 😅
Klaserie is so adorable feeling Phabeni with her trunk so intensely.
It's so good to see how well the Herd is 24:34 accepting the Phabeni Elephant calf. ❤❤❤❤
Amazing, how they, by instinct, know to position themselves around the baby for protection. Simply amazing!
Phabeni has no idea how blessed she is to have landed up at Herd, her future could have been so different. Thank you Herd for your kindness and love for these majestic animals
Phabeni is a bull 😉🙏
HE BABY BOY
Thank you for sharing the adventures of HERD, and for everything you do to bring awareness to these majestic beings. Blessings to the the entire HERD team ❤️

You could feel the excitement and tension. Stompane wants the baby to herself.
Salutes to all who made this decision and protect ed all ❤
Great job, HERD, your ellies are amazing. Just watching, how gentle and careful they were with Phabeni, is so heartwarming. God’s way is the best way always, he put him in the right place with the right people and a wonderful ellie family. Lots of blessings to you all!!!♥️🍀🐘🥰🙏🏻
What a beautiful introduction. These amazing creatures are an honour to watch, follow and learn from. ❤❤❤
Thank you for a comprehensive update on Phabeni.
I thank our Good God for how Phabeni has stabilised over the past week.
The Herd team is highly skilled, professional, & kind. Caring for our little baby bull with dedication. ❤❤❤
HUGS to all. ❣️ 💕 ❤️
Setombe wants that little boy! We have all gotten to know Lundi through her care for Khanyisa. Maybe now we will get to know Setombe better through her love for Phabeni. This is an extremely interesting dynamic unfolding within the herd. Also looking forward to how the herd raises a bull calf, and how the big bulls play a role in raising him. And Khanyisa's reaction?? Will she want to play with him? She is so friendly and confident, so hoping she will. This is almost like watching a wonderful tv series where we can't wait for the next episode 😊.
We will, absolutely. Already we can relate to her more. Setombe is a darling.❤❤❤
THANK YOU ADINE AND ALL HERD CARERS! PHABENI IS HOME AND SAFE NOW! LUNDI IS A GOOD MUM! THE ELEPHANTS ARE ASTOUNDING. SO SMART! SENDING LOVE AND HUGS TO ALL!🐘🦏🐘🦏
It's so amazing to watch this. Most people have no idea about the complexities of elephant relationships and family groups. I find all of this so interesting and love watching.
What a beatiful emotional roller coaster this video was! My mind goes back to Phabeni's first day at the rescue and going in the nursery. We all felt joy and relief he was with HERD 💗 and then sorrow this little baby was so lost and scared. 😢. To see Phabeni with the Herd and being loved on and accepted is so rewarding and glorious! Adine and all with HERD, thank you. Thank you for saving this precious Soul. ~ God bless you all. 🙏
I Just Can't Get Over How Majestic These Elephants Are!
