ORPHANED ALBINO ELEPHANT KHANYISA🐘💚 - ONE YEAR since she was rescued from the grips of a snare

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

Today we are celebrating the anniversary of Khanyisa arriving at HERD - how time has flown!
We made a lengthy video looking back at her journey - with a lot of unseen footage! It covers a unique little albino elephant calf's road to recovery - a journey that has inspired so many people, including us.
The year that Khanyisa has spent in our care has not only healed the precious baby albino elephant physically but emotionally too.
Her confidence, joy and trust developed - under the loving guidance and protection of our incredible, selfless carers, Adine and Elephant Manager, Tigere, Lammie the Legendary sheep companion, and the elephants who have become family to the calf.
The year gave Khanyisa so much, in her second chance at life, but we could never have expected what she would give to so many. She gave us light in a dark year, inspiration when there was little to find, and a daily reminder to keep on fighting, no matter what life stacks against you.
Thank you to everyone for your kindness in supporting HERD over the past year and beyond, whether it be financially or emotionally. We are very grateful for you.
A special thank you again to Petronel and her team at CareForWild for starting our journey with Khanyisa.
Put your feet up, grab yourself a cup of coffee and a biscuit and join us in looking back at Khanyisa's brave past 12 months.
We hope you enjoy the video!

    Humans have consistently failed to understand how intelligent & emotional elephants really are. To prove my point their is a guy in Thailand who plays classical piano to elephants & they show a definite appreciation for Beethoven & Bach. The music even calms down an aggressive, stressed out adult male.

It’s definitely not an easy task, emotionally & physically, especially when serious injuries are involved. Khanyisa, the rest of majestic elephants you have helped, and your whole group feels my heart with happiness and hope for the future. I rescued pets for more than 20 years and hope that if there’s another life, wish I could spend it helping these awesome animals, as well as others. Thank you so very much for what you do, from the bottom of my heart. ♥️♥️♥️ 🐘 🐘 🐘 .

    Oh my goodness. This brings back so many memories!!! One year ago, I read about a rescued baby Albino Elephant who had been caught up in a poachers snare and that began my introduction to Khanyisa and Herd Elephants! We knew her prognosis was not good but we hadn't reckoned on her Incredible spirit nor the absolute determination from the Wonderful Founder of HERD Elephants, Adine Roode, that this baby was not only going to survive but eventually join her new family, the Beautiful Jabulani Herd. One year on, through joy, worry, illness, sleepless nights, more worry, more joy - and that's just from us followers!! - Khanyisa is part of the Jabulani Herd. An adopted Mama Lundi, sisters, aunts, uncles - she is thriving!! I adopted her early on - as did many others - and she is just a JOY!!! God Bless and Thank You Adine, all the Carers, Doc Rogers, Ben and Helen van Hulle, everyone who helped during lockdown and of course Lammie The Legend!! You have all given 110%, worked when you were utterly exhausted and just kept on going, often running on empty. Thank You Sue and Tamlin for your fantastic support and I'm sorry if I've missed anyone! This film - with some unseen footage too - reminded me of what an Epic journey this has been for a baby Elephant who just wanted to live, and the human and Elephant families who helped her - and continue to help her - every step of the way. I love you Khanyisa and Everyone at Herd Elephans and Jabulani Safari!! 💛🐘💛🐑💛🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    It will be much more I think. This is such a special herd. They are orphans and yet accept each new elephant w/such love and protection. To have all the bulls in the same herd is just beyond rare. Adine's dream of giving orphans a Elephant family is not rare, what IS rare is how they are all orphaned and have formed a family/herd of females and males. The bulls are just as protective of the herd and the babies in it as are the females. It is an extraordinary story of hat will become known worldwide.

Sweeter than sweet. Her movements are like a human baby at times. Her eyes are so beautiful and how she gazes with her perky child wonder, and her cuddling, how she plays with toys, and rakes, wants to help, and do what you are doing, I just get my daily tears and feel a warm pride like she is such a good happy baby girl! Oh, and her little trunk all uncoordinated, just gaining strength, and learning about ele-ness every minute, what joy! 💐 Thanks and much gratitude for the constant videos to feel the care and warmth of the HERD and her herd and all the viewers here, and donations by members we are feeling she is ours we are invested in her and the whole HERD too. 💜 I need to have faith and I found my heart singing again, to see this you pour yourselves into what gives back blessings and joy.

    This video speaks to the sheer resilience of Khanyisa & every human that has helped her! Not to mention Lammie & the Jabulani Herd💞. Over the yrs I've adopted 5 ellies 🐘thru DSWT so I've watched them save many calves. But I don't really ever remember a young calf giving their trust to humans so quickly. That was ALL you & her! 💖. Please let us know (if you can) whom we can write to bcuz I really feel Khanyisa is THE face of the anti-poaching movement. She should be the ambassador, imho❤🐘💕🐘.

    Thank you so much. Khanyisa was so accepting of their love - it was as if she knew we were helping her. The immense trust she gave to Adine in cleaning her wounds every day was incredible. No sedation - as you cannot give continual sedation, and Adine would have her fingers in her mouth, in the wounds cleaning them day and night. Khanyisa would lay there relaxed, knowing she was being loved. That level of bonding with Adine and her carers created something very special. 100% agree she should be the face of anti-poaching

We all have our own stories and our own hardships which would have been so easy for many of us to lose ourselves in in 2020, but Khanyisa's story, her beauty, strength, sass, joy and her sweetness encouraged me at least to gain some perspective and focus on something other than myself. I can't wait to see what happens over the next year. So many new adventures await us...and by us I mean those of us who are living vicariously through HERD's pachyderms and humans alike.

What a terrible time she had, losing her mom and suffering from her injuries. You have all been so gentle, caring, kind, guiding, and loving with her. I have enjoyed being "a part of her family, humans, ellies, lambs", and have been greatly touched by the individual ellies devotion to each other. I am totally endeared to them all. Especially to Khanysia because of her cute, adorable and funny antics. I can't thank you enough for devoting your lives to the animals ❣️. You are also helping me through this terribly political time and the awful things our own "American born" treasonous people are doing to try and murder our nation. I have you and the ellies to share your knowledge, your beautiful country and your love. Thank you from the depths of my heart ❣️ 😊 🌳🚶🏾‍♂️🐘🚶🐘🧍🏼‍♂️🐘🌿🌻
