You read about all the hatred, barbarism and conflict going on all over the world, and then you find these gentle, peaceful creatures and feel ashamed to be human.
I can sure relate to your feelings. ~ HERD is a small corner on the World that brings peace, love, joy, happiness,empathy, safety and compassion. You can go from watching HERD to watching world news and you can go from feeling peace to despair. ~ A massive contrast~
Humans are rescuing them, feeding and loving them, and actively trying to assure their perpetuation. Humans, including you, are watching these videos and sympathizing and supporting them. Don't sell us too short, though I understand the sentiment.
Oh, look at him just being beautiful and relaxed.I guess he will never know how much he's loved all around the world, but his every step makes me happy. I love you baby Phabeni.
Phabeni is just discovering the new things around him in the company of Adine and his carers. He knows he found a wonderful place full of love, care and compassion.!!!!🍀🥰🐘♥️🌟🍼
It's amazing that he knows to eat soil to get the right nutrients. He never learned it, it's in his DNA. Millions of years of collected knowledge of his ancestors help him to do the right thing. Beautiful.
I remember Phabeni's prior videos, he was so fiesty and now, what a difference! He's filled with love, happiness, and peace. I love seeing him with Adine and the super cute Lammie and Spotty. Peace be to everyone.
To see this happy, adorable and affectionate baby after how stressed and depressed he was when he was first rescued is wonderful. All the love and care you’ve given him is evident in his happiness.
Phabeni is fast learning how to use that little trunk. I laugh and cry in almost every video. We are blessed to be able to watch the mutual love and respect between humans and elephants. I live in South Africa, watched many documentaries on elephants, but have never had the privilege to see the interactions between elephants in the way you can share in this orphanage. Thank you so very much for showing these wonderful gentle giants with the world.
It seems very special to watch the introductions with the orphans because of the unique situation of having a herd of elephants habituated to humans. If they were wild elephants, they would not act normally with humans close by and it would be very risky to expose wild elephants to a tiny orphan no matter how social they are. It's just fascinating to watch.
Phabini looks so big with his human and sheep herd,but when he is with the his elephant herd you really see how small and fragile he is,he is blessed to have two herds that love and care for him so much 🐘❣ his blanket is beautiful
When I see the little guy like this, peaceful and loved, I’m so happy! When I think of him alone and starving and scared in the bush, it breaks my heart. God bless Aldine and carers!! ❤❤❤
He has gotten happier and more content since he has gotten to be around the other elephants. They have all treated him with care and kindness and welcomed him into their heard and hearts ❤️
His eyes and actions show love and contentment 😍 so happy he is to be with his human herd too. Our hearts are full watching him thrive and become such a big boy.
As always, I love the sound of the breeze on the microphone and grasses, the crickets, the native birds.🐦🦜🦗 All social animal babies need to play - these are precious moments when he is small enough to wrestle Adine and his carers🤗
He’s so full of himself trying to be a lap ellie. 😂❤ I can only imagine what a relief it must be every time Adine gets back to the compound after being in the city. The peace and quiet and the love of the carers and elephants. ❤
We all thank the carers. But, I think sometimes that we may underestimate just how important a role they play in the well-being of the ellies. There is always danger lurking, even near the homestead. The carers stay with them all day, and make sure they are safe. And in return, the ellies protect them also. This is just an amazing partnership in so many ways. All of us around the world have been given a gift to witness such beauty and devotion. I truly hope the word spreads about The Herd. People need to understand and appreciate how important they are to our world.
here we are today more than 34 000 views for Phabeni !! it’s huge !!!! bravo baby love ❤️ 💕🐘💕🐘👼 🎈 baby angel !! you have so much love in the world !!!!.💕
it makes me so emotional seeing a little one i pray he becomes stronger and stronger and he WILL, one day he will be sparring with mambo playing with Fishan learning all the perks of being a beautiful confident elephant, and ALL thanks to you beautiful people who work and help them 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Hi Phabeni ❤️ hi lammie ❤️ hi spotty ❤️. Hi all of you 🍀. I adore to see him with the flashy blanket. Remember khanisa ❤ and the collection of blankets 🎉
That lady saved Phabeni's life. He is doing great. He is gaining weight. Still vulnerable teeny weeny. HERD doing a fantastic job with him. It is a lot of 24 hr care. Khanyisa is doing great too. Hi Lammie and Spotty. Phabeni is a sweet boy. Go Bokke! Love his blankie.
Loving Phabeni's blanket ❤. He's sooo beautiful and gentle. He's got a lovely nature. Lovely seeing him playing. Wished I was playing with him. Great seeing Lammie and Spotty too. Thk u Adine and Carers 🥰🐘🥰🐘🥰🐘🥰🐘 xxx
Phabeni has a new mommy who loves and cares for him in a human way. Theses elephants are taken care of better than some children. This is so heart warming to see. He’s very happy and understands the loving care. 💕🇺🇸🌴💗🌺
Awesome video thank you so much love the blanket don’t need a lawnmower with these 3 gardeners every one at the herd great job you all are amazing love 💕 from Canada
Phabeni is a sweet little guy & doing remarkably well thanks to all the care & attention from his 2 and 4 legged family! I love that sweet old Lammie has a buddy in baby Spotty & together they can help Phabeni through this journey. 🥰🙏❤️🐘🐑🐑 Side note...Spotty has such a striking coat, he looks like he has his own self-grown blankie!
Phabeni is sweet. Climbing all over Adine like a little kid. So cute! Thank you for these videos. Wish I could be there in person and experience what you caregivers do daily with these beautiful creatures.
A couple days ago Phabeni was running like crazy! It's great to see him so full of energy, getting in his cardio! He's going to be a big strong bull someday. Bless the little guy and all his friends at herd!
This little guy fills up my heart with each and every video until it spills out of my eyes...he just so special and lucky that you all found him and have turned his life into a dream vacation! I hope you all know how proud we all are of you and the work you are doing! You are very special individuals and all of us watching are in awe! Thanks for brightening my day...again! I still don’t understand why he has this affect on me but he and you own my heart right now with every video I watch! I’ve saved them all to my email. The first one I watched was him falling asleep with you...and he has owned my heart ever since! You all are proof that ANGELS WALK THE EARTH!!!
Adine is so unconcerned about getting dirty or being rough housed with a frisky young bull. Adine is a marvel. I'm so glad she & Herd we’re able to help this little guy.
So glad Spotty is part of the family now. He is a wonderful company for Lammie, who had to be all by himself when Khanyisa went out with her elephant family during the day. It would have been the same scenario with Phabeni as well. With Spotty here, he always has company. Wonderful arrangement. Thank you all for taking care of all the details to keep our beloved animals happy physically and emotionally. ❤🐑🐏🐘🦣🐕
Phabeni seems to have settled down some. He's so very precious as are all of the ellies! I love watching him, Spotty and Lammie the Legend explore the garden.❤❤❤❤
Phebeni has such a cute round head and lovely big ears. He uses his trunk so well. He seems gentle with his sheep companions. He really is playful and feisty. His personality will be a great addition to the herd. Spotty, the new sheep in training is so cute and really seems to “get” her role in the nursery.
You read about all the hatred, barbarism and conflict going on all over the world, and then you find these gentle, peaceful creatures and feel ashamed to be human.
I am ashamed too. There was a time when we believed in our superiority, but now, clearly, we must learn from the other animals in the planet.

Yes - but animals don’t have a “soul” & evil requires one. They live in the moment - no worries about future or past.
Don’t feel shame- it puts negativity and makes everything worse. I used to do that too. Let’s figure out what we can do.
Oh, look at him just being beautiful and relaxed.I guess he will never know how much he's loved all around the world, but his every step makes me happy. I love you baby Phabeni.

Who knew Phabeni was a lap elephant?! 🐘
😂😂😂
Yes, it looks like it. Reminded me of our large bouvier who thought he was a lapdog.
Big fan of Phabeni. He's doing so well. So glad to see him happy 🙏
It's amazing that he knows to eat soil to get the right nutrients. He never learned it, it's in his DNA. Millions of years of collected knowledge of his ancestors help him to do the right thing. Beautiful.
My dogs do the same. They know.
They smell it.@@mariafont8826
They know because The Most High God made them and HE programmed them! 🙏🏻🤩✨
I remember Phabeni's prior videos, he was so fiesty and now, what a difference! He's filled with love, happiness, and peace. I love seeing him with Adine and the super cute Lammie and Spotty. Peace be to everyone.
Peace to you too.
To see this happy, adorable and affectionate baby after how stressed and depressed he was when he was first rescued is wonderful. All the love and care you’ve given him is evident in his happiness.
He is beautiful! God Bless all of you for the care and love you give him and all the elephants❤

Exactly ❤ His rumbles in this video just mean the world. Elephant rumbles have become my favorite sound.
I also bounce from laughter and tears…they come so freely 💋🫶

If they were wild elephants, they would not act normally with humans close by and it would be very risky to expose wild elephants to a tiny orphan no matter how social they are.

❤❤❤❤
The kindness and understanding, gentle care and love he receives from Adine and the carers have made Phabeni so much more tranquil. ❤
The light is back in this little boy. What a happy feeling ❤
Phabini looks so big with his human and sheep herd,but when he is with the his elephant herd you really see how small and fragile he is,he is blessed to have two herds that love and care for him so much 🐘❣ his blanket is beautiful
He has so much love around him, and from all around the world! 🥰🐘
@@herdelephantorphanage Yes he does🐘❣
Spotty looks like she’s wearing a polka dot, sleeveless tank top😊🥰❤️
Oh joy of joys, it's my favorite baby boy!! Phabeni, dear Phabeni, we love you!! 🩵🧡🩵🧡🩵
I can’t say it enough… what a sweet sweet boy! I just love watching his healing journey unfold… we love you HERD family ❤
So much for those pants. Green grass as far as the eye can see, but we prefer the mud. - Elephants and children.
I love when Phabeni touches the mud, then thinks about mud, then touches it again and thinks some more about mud. ❤️🐘
Amazing how physically affectionate elephants are. Loving and caring.
😢 yes. They deserve all the love and respect.
When I see the little guy like this, peaceful and loved, I’m so happy! When I think of him alone and starving and scared in the bush, it breaks my heart. God bless Aldine and carers!! ❤❤❤
Such a privilege to be up
close to Phabeni sharing her new life with the Herd, thank you🙏❤️
He has gotten happier and more content since he has gotten to be around the other elephants. They have all treated him with care and kindness and welcomed him into their heard and hearts ❤️
love the blanket and love little Phabeni
His eyes and actions show love and contentment 😍 so happy he is to be with his human herd too. Our hearts are full watching him thrive and become such a big boy.
Ridiculous gorgeous Phabeni, the super boy. That blanket ❤❤
A rugby fan elephant! What better???? He is beautiful!❤❤❤
As always, I love the sound of the breeze on the microphone and grasses, the crickets, the native birds.🐦🦜🦗 All social animal babies need to play - these are precious moments when he is small enough to wrestle Adine and his carers🤗
I love Spotty and Lammi also. ❤❤❤
An absolute joy and privilege to watch. Precious moments.
Phabeni my sweetest love! ❤🐘💛🧡
Food, safety, companionship, blessings to all those who provide these.
I love overcast days because the images are clearer. Love you Pha.
Spotty makes me laugh....he's just all happy eating and eating more 😅❤
Dear Phabeni you look so sharp in that green/yellow blanket 🥰😍😘🤩 love you guys!!! Lammy and spotty 😘😘😘 thank you Adine 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻🇺🇸
How utterly adorable 😍. Even though Phabeni loves being with the elephant herd, I'm sure he takes great pleasure in being with his humans too.
He’s so full of himself trying to be a lap ellie. 😂❤
I can only imagine what a relief it must be every time Adine gets back to the compound after being in the city. The peace and quiet and the love of the carers and elephants. ❤
Очень милый слонёнок такой милый сладкий пушистый хоботочек ❤❤❤.будь счастлив и здоров.❤❤❤

Thank you Adine to let him play like a child with you, please be careful and not get hurt as he grows

Sending best wishes seasons are changing every day is a good day with the HERD team
Phabeni is sweet. Climbing all over Adine like a little kid. So cute! Thank you for these videos. Wish I could be there in person and experience what you caregivers do daily with these beautiful creatures.
Hello🌹Phabeni and his blanket with his great love Adine🥰 kisses to Friends too💕
Phabeni 💪💪💪🥰
It is so wonderful to watch Phabeni with his friends.. enjoying the garden❤
He is the sweetest, headbuttingest little cutie 💓

❤🐑🐏🐘🦣🐕
It’s amazing what good care and love has done for Phabeni! Seeing this brightens my day!
Does Phabeni still receive a bottle every 2 hours? I can see Phabeni’s fine body hair all over his body. He’s so precious.❤
Good morning 🌅
If Adine uses the same process as Khanyisa…then yes, he would be receiving his bottle(s) every 2 hrs
He’s a growing boy.
He does look so much more relaxed around the eyes.
🤟☮️🇦🇺🤓👍
Phabeni is looking good!
Good to see Lammie and Spotty again.
Hi Adine 🌹. He is a sweet elephant 🐘❤️. Khanisa ❤️ will be jealous 😂
Tranquillity oasis. Thank you Adine. Best wishes one and all.
I haven't seen The Amazing Lammie looking so fit and happy in a while.🎉❤ I think the youngsters have added another year.
Looks likes a windy day.littlr Phabeni is enjoying his day in the garden.😊❤❤
He is like a puppy climbing on your legs!
His fuzziness makes him look like he’s glowing. Khanyisa’s made her look super shiny, like her name. How adorable!
Phabeni seems to have settled down some. He's so very precious as are all of the ellies! I love watching him, Spotty and Lammie the Legend explore the garden.❤❤❤❤
Baby is sooooo cuuuuute😍😘😘😘💕💕💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Phebeni has such a cute round head and lovely big ears. He uses his trunk so well. He seems gentle with his sheep companions. He really is playful and feisty. His personality will be a great addition to the herd. Spotty, the new sheep in training is so cute and really seems to “get” her role in the nursery.
I love how he uses his foot to turn up the dirt so he can get more mud. He’s so smart! Where did he learn that from?
Oh he is so very precious! I didn't think any elephant could be as cute as Khanysia but this little guy has my heart too!!
He's not as funny as Khanyisa for sure but just as cute in his own way!
@@ShedaKhan-m8x He is a bit feisty! But he wasn't injured like baby Khanyisa. He is a cutie! They both have my heart!
Adine, is your hand getting better? 💐🙏
Little Phabeni is gettong more dextourous with that trunk.
lucky you Adine Phabeni adorable
Every time I see him I just wanna hug him…❤
Adina, your love ❤ is showing with this boisterous bull calf. He's thriving. Thank you all.
He and his friends are so happy. Thank you for all those at Herd do to improve the life of all animals they come into contact with.
Adine is simply marvelous with Phabeni. I am feeling their sweet connection.
He absolutely adores his human mom, Adine. ❤❤
He’s a very smart little elephant. And very good using his trunk to get the grass to eat. ❤
Ohhh so cute cuddling with you , he wants to be with his mama In her lap ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You people make my day. ❤
i love Phabeni 😂😂🤣🤣😂😂😘😘
There’s nothing more serene than watching a baby elephant and their sheep companions munch away in the garden
Look at his eyes so carefree and lively now. He is at ease. ❤
What a sweet baby Elephant. Very cute.
