- Meet LIMPOPO! The next youngster in the Jabulani herd 🐘 A true sweetheart with a heart of gold. 🥰
As the daughter of the herd’s Matriarch, she is protective, beautiful and intelligent. If she finds her way into your heart, you can foster her and stand a chance to win a three-night stay at Jabulani for two people sharing!

Named after a river in Zimbabwe and a province in South Africa, Limpopo is the daughter of Matriarch, Tokwe and came into the world on 19 August 2006.
She was the first calf born to the Jabulani herd and while we know who her mother is, we can only guess who the father may be - possibly Sebakwe or a wild elephant. Her birth was an emotional time for us all, as elephants are known to not reproduce if they are under stress or in an unhappy environment. Her birth showed that Tokwe was happy and at home in her new surroundings with us at Jabulani, after being rescued from being culled in Zimbabwe.
Physical Traits:
You can certainly see Limpopo’s resemblance to her mother, with her slightly less wrinkled skin, slightly pointed forehead, and thin, neat and even tusks. Being an active elephant, much like her mother, Limpopo also has a more athletic body shape.
Personality:
Limpopo is the eldest of the younger elephants and is very much the big sister of the herd, always protective and tending to the younger elephants - a trait she may well have learned from her caring mother.
She is an intelligent and beautiful young female, very aware of the other elephants’ emotions.
Whenever the elephants encounter dangerous animals on the reserve, such as lions, she is one of the first of the herd to react in a protective manner. She is her mother’s biggest fan, always backing her up and giving her daughterly support. It is beautiful to watch her love and devotion to her.
Limpopo always helps Tokwe tend to the younger siblings, Kumbura and Timisa, and she spends most of her time with her best friend, Klaserie, who is just 6 months younger than her.
Foster the kind and caring Limpopo!

She's everything an elephant should be. She has no scars. Has never been brutalized. I wish they all lived that way.
Amen to that 🙏
Amen!
Well said. The HERD elephants trust their human friends, or this likely would not have happened. It fills my heart for both elephant and human.
I wish all living creatures lived this way 😢
❤
She never knew the cruelty of humans. She is blessed!
What a beautiful ellie. She's living proof the sanctuary does great work
Limpopo has known nothing but love and caring her life. How fortunate she is!

I love when elephants give humans the side eye.
Towke and the herd along with Adine and caregivers raised a beautiful,strong girl just like our baby K. Love is everywhere in this herd of beautiful elephants.
❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️🐘
I think Limpopo enjoys her people. She pays attention.
Oh Limpopo! What a cute, delightful baby!
Her ears are perfect, that is how I will know her, she is beautiful.
The baby ellies are ridiculously cute! How lucky you are at Jabulani to get to see them grow up.
I watch these elephants everyday.
Humans could learn a lot from elephants...decency kindness gentleness loyalty family ....on and on
Today is March, 11, 2021. I’m watching this video not long after baby Fenya was rescued and came to Herd.
It’s incredible to watch pictures of Limpopo as a little calf, such a beautiful baby, well fed and cared for, always protected by her loving family; humans and ellies.
And it’s heartbreaking to compare this beautiful images with pictures of baby Fenya struggling to survive her devastating physical and emotional wounds.
Although I know Fenya is in the best hands I’m aware she’s still in critical condition.
I’m praying for your recovery, Fenya. Stay strong, my girl.
Thanks Herd friends for all you work. 💕🐘💞
I love this!❤ Her safety at HERD!🙏🏻❤
2021- 15yrs old now your adorable Limpopo
It’s so cute to see her as a tiny baby. She has grown into a beautiful girl.
She has a beautiful soul you can tell by her eyes. They are so soft. Loved watching her grow up. Thank you to Adine and all of the herds careers. ❤❤🐘🐘🐘🐘
Thank God for all of you who care for these big and littler animal babies.
(Some people are so ignorant to think tusks are a commodity or something, when they are really just keratin like our fingernails.)
Could you give us a chart of the relationships of the herd? How they are related? We are absolutely in awe of the care you give to these beautiful animals. Thank you.
She's a beauty. ❤
To those that love and raise them, they will always be their babies.
And add to that their goofy, happy, let's go swimming side, "Mom, look at me in the mud-! Mom, are you watching ... Mom-? Yippppieeee."
always and im so enthralled. these babies along with the herd are the most adorable sweetest darlings. yup, I'm definitely WHIPPED. love and respect these awesome giants.😇🕊🙏🏻🌲🌳🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘💕💕
In elephant years isn't she just now still considered a teenager, not sure, but that's what she reminds me of. Just beautiful.
I'm a 21 year rescuer .

I love every single elephant in this magnificent herd, and I have a really soft spot for precious Limpopo! When she lifts her back leg to scratch the other back leg, it always makes me giggle without fail. She's grown up into an absolute beauty and takes so much after her mom. And those eyes and eyelashes make my heart melt every time. We love you, Popo!!!!!
God bless y'all, for taking care of God's beautiful creation, Amen
Oh be still my heart! What a cutie! And what a beautiful adult elephant.
How precious 💗
Oh what an adorable little sweetheart! God bless you and your mom
And those far away will love them too ❤️ They are beautiful creatures ❤️
Limpopo is so smart about positioning herself to her advantage, ie: going down the incline, on knees for lower foraging, etc.
The herd will be in good hands...👍
She is a very bright young elephant!
It reminds me of those clips of elephants sliding down hills (on their knees) in the rainforest for some entertainment.
Everything i see takes my breath away. Telling that big beautiful beast 'easy like I'd tell my dog to sit. Amazing.
Limpopo was a cute calf n she has grown more gorgeous over the years. Hope she learns all she can from her wonderful mama n she will be beautiful n wise 🙏🐘💕🐘💕😘
She has a beautiful face...and her eyes are soulful.❣💞💕💓
I just marvel at their Majesty! What a Beautiful Elephant! Just awesome!
Following this delightful series of the Jubilani ellie family, all enjoying their freedom and love from their carers is like wandering along in a slow, dreamy and beautiful ellie heaven! A huge thanks to all of you who make this possible.❤🖐🏾🐘
Wow thank you!
sorry to be so off topic but does someone know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account??
I somehow lost the login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me
I love to know the Limpopo's story. I suggest you make this kind of video about the story of each elephant of the herd. 😘🐘🐘🐘🐘♥🍀🙏

Gosh Limpopo really is a gorgeous girl. Love the way she does a full circle showing off her whole body! Such beauty and intelligence in those dreamy eyes.
She is a lovely elephant! Very bold!

Sebakwe. He and Tokwe still hang out together. The others patriarchal lineage is not publicly known for some reason.
