The Amazing Moment Baby Elephant Orphan, Phabeni Meets Lundi and Suckles From Her
Вставка

- We were holding our breaths as Phabeni rushed over to Lundi for this meeting! Lundi surrounded him immediately, protectively reversing toward him and touching his trunk with her own. It was an absolutely heartwarming introduction - the second for Phabeni, after the little bull first met the older bull, Jabulani trunk-to-trunk.
Lundi was clearly excited by the occasion as you could see her streaming from the temporal lobe, on the side of her head, which happens during a state of heightened emotion. She seemed to be uncertain of what to do at first as this new little baby presented himself in front of her, but we believe the presence of Jabulani helped to keep her calm. Lundi shares her section of the homestead at HERD with Jabulani, where she sleeps at night with her son Mambo too.
Our hope is that Lundi might take Phabeni in as her second son, to help raise and guide him the way she did Khanyisa. But you never know... during these introductions another cow might show interest in taking on this role as mother to the newest orphan at HERD. Time will tell. For now, we are blown away by the bravery and coolness of little Phabeni. He is so clever and adapts quickly to each new situation he finds himself in. He seems very ready to be part of this new elephant family!
We are fortunate in this case as he has not needed as much rehabilitation as albino baby, Khanyisa needed, and so this introduction stage has come sooner and faster. Well done to our team on the ground and to these three elephants for showing the world that families can look different from the norm, that we can build our own families, and that no one ever needs to be left behind or alone.
You can help us to support Phabeni by adopting him and contributing to the many expenses of his care: herd.org.za/an...
What an amazing elephant Lundi is. Almost immediately accepting Phabeni and acting like a protective mum. I just love these elephants. They are amazing, intelligent and beautiful creatures. The careres do a wonderful job looking after this special herd.
Tho we're scattered around the globe, it feels like we're all wide-eyed in a huddle seeing the miracle of their connection. Bless you for putting it so well. 🐘🦋
Lundi is one of the best Mom's you could ever ask for.
I didn't know they have teats in the front area. Amazing
@@dragonflykisses57Neither did l. Possibly we weren't expecting it because most 4 legged creatures have them at the other end - like cows or all the way along like dogs. 😊
@@mortalclown3812😊😊
He's going to make it. Human companionship is one thing. Being accepted by the female elephants is the next level for his mental health. Well done HERD.
It is 340 in the morning and Portland Oregon and I woke up and got to see this wonderful bundle of joy. It just makes my heart happy I can see him smiling. I am so proud of him. I want to thank everyone there at the herd guys are a blessing to this world. Thank you so much and I am so looking forward to watching him grow he will outlive me. Thanks to you I love his attitude. Personality is excitement. He is come so far it broke my heart to see him broken when you first got him, but it enjoys my heart for him to so excited every day and rambunctious. Thank you.
I'm in Portland as well and up way too early!
It's always emotional for me to see the orphans suckle for the first time because I know they haven't experienced that since they lost their mama. It fills my heart with warmth to see this little guy warming up to the herd as he has.
I too woke up at 3:30 in Portland, Or., grateful for no ice. I echo everything you said.
I woke up at 0400 in the morning, inside the city of Olympia, WA USA.
Me, too, here in Olympia, WA. Must be a PNW HERD elephant vibe that woke us up! So touching to watch Phabeni being integrated into the family.
I'm up at 5am in the Yukon straight up from you all! I guess our spidey senses just knew this amazing moment was coming today. Aww Lundi is so wonderful. He isn't as bold as Khanyisa, but he latched on like a champ and she wanted to lead him away. He was actually standing close to Jabu for comfort! So amazing ❤❤😂
I am awed by the behavior of these magnificent animals - Jabu’s calm steadiness, Lundi’s maternal acceptance, Phabeni’s curiosity and lack of fear! I feel so privileged to have witnessed this moment. Thank you all for sharing it with us and for your tireless dedication to the herd. This little boy has a bright future ahead, thanks to you.
Perfect comment! Couldn't have said it better
DITTO!! 🙌🏼♥️♥️♥️
You all are the reason why this has been so successful with Phabeni and the HERD!! You rock! Thank you for your unconditional love for Phabeni and the HERD. 🤝😘🤗
Kindness love and dedication from an incredible team ❤️
@@valansley Absolutely!!! 💙🐘❤️🐘🙏
Lundi never ceases to amaze us with her mothering of orphans. She is incredibly special.
I'm so happy for Phabeni! He's so tiny but so courageous and confident around the big elephants who come visit him! And Lundi, sweet Lundi, is once again so warm and lovely to the orphans and was more than happy to comfort Phabeni. Jabulani's calm demeanour is always reassuring, too. Phabeni's personality is shining brighter day by day, and I can't wait to see more of his development! Thank you HERD!
Great comment!! 💙🐘🤗🙏
It's absolutely so amazing to see Phabeni suckle and for Lundi to offer herself. You can see she is a good caring mother. And you can see she will protect him as they do look out for one another. Phabeni is very intelligent and fearless of the elephants size. He seems to be comfortable fitting in with the bigger elephants. Nature close up at its best at work. Thank you HERD for sharing. I was so touched. I love these elephants and admire all the work Adine and the workers do.❤❤❤
There is a kind of comfort only an elephant can give to another elephant.
What an honour to witness Phabeni being adopted by Lundi. You are all very special people🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🫡. Cheers Rosemary Western Australia 73yrs
Amazing, Lundi is wonderful. Jabu is just the gentle guardian of the herd! Pabeni now has a family. My heart is full.
Thank you HERD for all that you do.😊
Ditto, my heart is overjoyed! Our little bull has been adopted by his new momma + family! Beyond THRILLED for Phabeni! 💞 🐘 💞
Totally agree. Thank you for so eloquently expressing my own feelings. 🐘
They put humans to shame with their love for each other ❤❤
I’m sorry you don’t feel love in your life and I hope that what love you believe you’ve not gotten or don’t experience, you can bring to you and give to others. There are 8 billion people on earth and most are good people who give and receive love and are just like you.
Remember that those who are hardest to love, need love the most. God bless you dear…. I send you big sister hugs from Ohio! 🥰🤗😇🌻
@@HalfBunnecessary.
Miriam... I agree.
@@carolannmoore989 🤗
Have you noticed the love the humans have for the elephants?
For some reason, when little baby wanted to suckle, it made me tear up. I was thinking how much he must have missed his momma, and she him when they got separated. To see beautiful Lundi accept Phaebini is so wonderful. She will be a great new "momma" to him. The last little bit with Phaebini standing between these two majestic animals was so heartwarming.
Blessing to all of you for such care, support, and love to our little boy, Khynasia, and all at HERD.
Thank you.
🩵🐘🩵🐘
Amen 😭🥰😍
For some reason, as soon as he arrived, I felt Phabeni's trauma in losing his Mum even more acutely than I did with Khanyisa.
To be clear, Khanyisa has her very own place in my heart. Perhaps it was because he was so skinny and not taking his bottles calmly like 'Special K' did. Who knows?
I'm glad it was Lundi (and her perfectly unique ears). Here's to all 18 elephants continuing to grow, thrive and LOVE.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think about his own mom and how stressful it would be for her to have been separated from her baby. 🐘🐘💔
@@shannonlera3844 Exactly. Thank goodness he was rescued by HERD. 🩵🐘
Are they saying there’s no actual
Milk? It’s just comfort suckling?
@@ybcarlebach266Yes. They will continue to bottle feed the littlie until he's about five. The work they do is amazing.
How absolutely selfless Lundi is and how absolutely brave and trusting of Lundi little Phabeni is. Thank you to the wonderful team at Herd for your absolute devotion to these magnificent creatures.
I just woke the family up screaming YES YES YES.
I am overjoyed for the herd! Thank all of you so much for protecting and preserving these precious lives
To be accepted by elephant adults not related to him.
Its a huge step for Phabeni.
Already made my weekend.
Baby elephants are honestly the sweetest creatures. May all the world elephant herds grow healthy and strong.🖤🐘✨
This cooperation, and the connection between all humans and elephants involved here is sooo amazing and wonderful. The way all communicate with each other, the way Phabeni and Lundi turn to their carers for reassurance is one of a kind! This is true teamwork and mutual love! 😍
We are so blown away! Thank you for your kind words. We are feeling the love big time for this special orphan, Lundi and Jabulani and the all the elephants about to meet Phabeni!
@@herdelephantorphanage Sending my love from Germany ❣
Much Love from Texas! What precious moments.❤
Oh my goodness! I started crying almost before the video started…I’ve wanted him to make friends with the herd and it’s finally happening! I’m just over joyed for this little guy. I don’t know why I am so connected to him in this way but I’ve literally prayed for him to have a good life. It’s because of you and your caretakers that this beautiful moment is upon us. Thank you all for caring so much and giving him a new and wonderful life! It’s just more than my heart can take at this moment…I’m a grown ass man and for some reason this little one has captured my heart! God bless you all and know that you are proof that Angels Walk The Earth
Its amazing how they naturally know to suckle after being on the bottle for so long. Beautiful!
This is the sweetest thing I’ve seen in a long time.
Love 💕 is love !
We all want to be loved & accepted !
💕🐘💕🐘
Such a wonderful day for all the elephants! It looks likes Phabeni has found his adoptive mother!
Lundi was immediately protective = Wonderful
Wow. This is not just another heartwarming video of another orphan saved, but it shows just how brilliantly well you carers have come to understand the elephants as individuals as well as as a group. This clearly shows a long-term devotion to the project which makes me proud to support your efforts. Best wishes to you all.
Today is the Phabeni day !! happiness is everywhere in the world ! how this tiny baby comes to meet these 2 giants without to be scary or shy !! I am breathless to see how he feels good but how he miss her mum sucking quickly Lundi ! like Khanyisa did it ! adorable Phabeni !! January 26 is a great day and a more great day has to come with the entire herd ! Baby Phabeni was so funny this morning with his friends !! unbelievable !😂😂 thank you to all of you to share this marvel moment ! unique moment !!! 💕🐘💕🐘💕 🎈👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
So sweet. Such a brave little bull and I love how motherly Lundi is towards him. Love to watch these videos....give a big hug to Khanyisa for me. XXXOOO
Phabeni is so courageous being surrounded and unaffected by those big gentle giants in between him. Phabeni you are so adorable and such a big boy!! 😊❤🐘
What a precious time when Lundi accepts Phabeni. To allow Phabeni to suckle. This would have brought emotional feelings to Phabeni of his mother he lost. ❤🐘💕
The sprightly outing in the video before and now Phabeni being adopted properly by dear Lundi, always a trustworthy allo-mother…and all the professional and loving help from the carers, Adine and all of HERD…this world still has encouraging stories like that to offer 🥰
💯💪🐘🩵☺️🐑
Elephant family are an amazing example in how to live protecting each other and how to takes care the family!! 💕
Just beautiful..thank you team Herd 🇬🇧
What an absolutely magical moment. These magnificent creatures epitomize the term gentle giants here. Little Phabeni shows such sweet vulnerability while Jabu and now Lundi show much loving compassion. The family (ellie and human!) vibes are off the chart at HERD. ❤
I find it fascinating how different he is from Khanyisa!
He surprises us constantly!
He's so smart and calm! ❤
Earthmama ~ You're so right. 🩵
And this makes me appreciate their differences all the more. 🐘🐘
Even their courage is in different hues. Seeing Phabeni run in these last two videos is one of the most adorable things ever.
😂🦋🐘🌍
@@arcticgoddess
💯🩵🐘
He looks so tiny to be utterly unfazed beside them, eh?
😂
To think he's closer to Nandi's size is amazing.
Sunshine was a snare victim very diff
I'm so happy for Phabeni 💓 Thank you to ALL of you for your patience, love, and care! 🙏🏻💞
Oh, how awesome was that??!! You brave little man, Phabeni. You beautiful little bull. Lundi, you are so lovely, inside and out. So accepting of the little ones that I've seen. My eyes were streaming along with Lundi's streaming. Must be a Mum thing lol. Congratulations all at HERD. God Bless you all xox
Bulls don't give milk. Lundi is a cow.
@@briankleinschmidt3664 I'm a female.
@@briankleinschmidt3664 aahh, I see what's happened. You missed the full stop after the word bull. lol , all good 😀
😂
Very beautiful to see the orphan be accepted. He is no longer an orphan but a member of the herd. Elephants can teach many humans what life is to be. Compassion, acceptance, protection, and love. Many other qualities they can teach us.
Oh wow....I have no words once again....wow wow this is so awesome to see....Well done Lundi....well done to all of you.... this is amaising work .....God bless you all.....
I am always amazed by the wisdom and kindness of elephants towards each other and their ability to understand that these orphans need taking care of. I hope that the relationship between this baby and Lundi grows and she truly becomes his mother.
What a beautiful moment! Now, he feels safe. Jabulani is the perfect daddy of the herd, and Lundi is a wonderful mother to the orphans. He is so brave. I just love him!
Thank you for including explanations of the elephants actions in your videos. 😊😊😊
What a beautiful sight. Lundi is amazing. 🐘
If you could drop this little sweetheart off at any place on earth with any human family and elephant family on earth, THIS would be the ONE that would assure her forever life from here on out would be nothing but love. HERD and of course the actual HERD, are hands down, some of the best carers and protectors of our ele's.... Lundi has raised and healed SO MANY and Jabu has walked the path all of these little babies have been on before himself so his compassion and understanding is built in. Your new family sweetheart already LOVES YOU and they will LOVE and protect you forever from here on out. SO HAPPY TO SEE THIS!!!!
Oh what a beautiful heart warming moment between Phabeni and Lundi, all because of your care and love for these beautiful Elephants 🐘, Adine you and all your wonderful carers are absolutely amazing. ❤❤❤❤.Di England 🏴.
Watching this little guy from the time of his rescue until now, I believe he will be a great leader of the herd one day. He seems very intelligent, resourceful, and adapts very quickly to what's happening around him. Thanks to all of you who help him and other little ones grow and thrive. God bless.
Actual elephant herds are matriarchal led by an elderly female with males leaving when they grow up. While male elephants are largely solitary, the elders periodically mentor the younger bachelors which is essential to they learning good behaviour.
Males aren’t leaders of elephant herds
I’m so excited that he has taken to suckle on Lundi, such a brave little boy. I’ve been so waiting for this moment. You must all be overjoyed with this positive interaction. Thank you so much for all your hard work. 💙All of you right down to the people who do the things we don’t get to see. 💙It takes a dedicated team to carry out such important work. Thank you for sharing.❤
Well-said! Thrilled to see Phabeni finally suckle! What a brave little bull, he is
🛡 🐘 🛡 We have all been awaiting for this pivotal moment... Abundant thanks + praise to the HERD Team...
BRAVO! 💞
Elephants are such beautiful creatures ❤ She is so sweet to take him on as her own.
Welcome Son says Mama Lundi we will protect and love you very much and Jabu watches over you always too. Beautiful scenes and warming this ladies heart. Thank you Adine and all you angels on earth. 🩵💙
What an incredible moment. Jabulani is the steady older brother/father figure for Phabeni and then Phabeni meets his adoptive mother. Lundi is so accepting and loving. Such great maternal instincts displayed. Jabulani is such a kind and loving bull. Wonderful decision to introduce these two first to little Phabeni. On the other hand, it's so amazing to see little Phabeni so brave and courageous. He will be a mighty bull one day. ❤
This is so exciting and beautiful
8:16 The wonderful moment Lundi💓🐘 does what she does best; stepping in as a Mother to little Phabeni just as she did with Khanyisa❤🐘💖✌
Oh Happy Day. My heart is filled with joy seeing Lundi 🐘 accepting Phabeni 🐘 as her own. He is such a clever little bull. He takes everything in stride. Now it won't be long before Phabeni 🐘 meets the rest of the HERD. Thank you to Adine, Tigere and all of the carers who have assisted in Phabeni's 🐘 care. This is so exciting. Now we will see how the other females take to him. Such a Bubi 🐘 or Limpopo 🐘 as she seemed very interested in Phabeni 🐘 at the fence. Time will tell. 👏👏❤️🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘❤️
Oh Wow! I'm really overcome with emotion😭. They look like a family, and seeing Baby P suckling is beyond words. My heart is over flowing from the sweetness and tenderness of this beautiful scene😘😘😘. Thank you dear carers of the Herd! You are so so loved by all of us!💖
It's wonderful to see the little fella now much more settled and confident
This is just wonderful the work and care you all do with these precious elephants 🐘❤💛💙
Lundi can't keep her excitement having physical contact with lil Phabeani. It was a wonderful moment where Phabby started to attach to Lundi. Phabeani is now not shy or afraid to meet the rest of the herd since they have been meeting by the fence everyday. Can't wait for Tokwe's turn with Phabeani. Hopefully Khanyisa wouldn't mind sharing her alto mother with Phabeani. Congratulations to Adine and Herd's team for dedicated job well done. ❤😂❤
I feel like Kumbura has become her mother more than Lundi. I do worry she will be jealous of him, but we shall see.
The great thing is that female elephants exist to defend and extend their breeding herd; successfully raising the calves is their raison d'etre. Even this orphan herd has encountered and managed jealousy before. i.e. Pisa. Khanyisa will be a more extreme case, I suspect, but well within the capacity of Tokwe & co to manage. If Kumbura does not transfer allegiance, her love alone should be enough to gradually reassure Khanyisa. And if Limpopo or Pisa should decide to give allomothering Phabeni a good go, then God help Khanyisa if she plays rough. @@hisservants8003
@@hisservants8003 Yes, Kumbura is now like Khanyisa's guardian nowadays, always keeping close eyes over lil princess, although she sometimes seeks Lundi.
This is the best thing I’ve seen this week!! It seems like it couldn’t have gone better. Sweet little Phabeni has a foster mom at last. I think he feels the love that surrounds him from ellies and humans. And maybe from all of us around the world😄
Aww Phabeni is so tiny compared to the other elephants! Love to all of you who care for these beautiful animals.
Tiny but with a beautiful presence
I have never seen such a big, wide stream of 'tears' (emotional glance) seen at Lundi face, not even with Khanyisha. She was extremely excited and emotional. What a great allomom she is. And what a milestone for Herd! ❤
Look at the little baby. So calm. It's beautiful the bigger elephants go right into protective mode. I'm so happy to see Phabeni with her new family. That's where he belongs. Thank you people for all your care, love and patience.❤
I feel privileged to have watched this extraordinary adoption masterclass by Adine and her elephant and human helpers. Elephants display love in such amazingly practical ways. ❤
Phabeni looks so tiny! It's hard to believe he will be so big eventually. ❤🐘
I once learned somewhere that an elephant turning their back to you is a sign of trust and/or acceptance..as they are showing their vulnerable side to you.
God never changes. Adine and carers are angels ❤❤❤
The caregivers are amazing! Blessings to you, we love all! Blessings to the sweeties at your rescue.
He’s so tiny compared to the adults 😮 🥰 Adorable
This introduction was even more exciting than I had hoped! The way Lundi smelled and greeted Phabeni, then immediately turned around to protect him was awesome! Moving her leg forward so he could suckle, and the way he instinctively trusted her enough to do so, made my heart blossom with love. ❤ He seems so tiny next to Lundi and Jabu, but he knew he was safe with them. His original herd must have loved him very much and protected him. Thank you HERD, for giving little Phabeni care and a family to love.
6:30am in Atlanta, Ga. I have been looking forward to this moment with great anticipation! Little Phabeni seems to already prefer to be with the boys where as Khaniysa needed more comfort. Lol, I laughed as I think I know what I am talking about yet I never been around elephants.😂. Never the less, I enjoy this process and I can't wait to see more.❤❤❤
That's all of the fans! Adine has opened up the process so much that it seems familiar!
Phabeni is in his element and he knows that he is right where he belongs. God love his heart.
FANTASTIC!! Instinct takes over and everything happens as if they've been doing this for Ages!!! Love Phabeni.. He Needs A Cuddle for Me!!
Love How He Runs Back to Adine for Reassurance... Thank You Herd Team for Sharing this AMAZING MOMENT!!!! WELL DONE EVERYONE.. IT'S TEAMWORK AT IT'S BEST!!
❤🐘❤🐘❤
I was Blubbering like A New Mom! All the anticipation.. Yes / No.. Wonderfully Awesome!!
❤🐘❤🐘❤
Mamma Lundi & Papa Jabu!!!!
What a brave little munchkin, he’s right at home. Good job team Herd!❤❤❤
Ich bin immer wieder so begeistert von Euren Filmen und eurem Alltag mit den Elefanten! Ich bewundere Eure intensive Arbeit, sehe aber auch die große Liebe zu den Tieren ❤.
Ich glaube, dass es aber genau an Adine und ihrem tollen Team liegt, dass Jabulani und Lundi so entspannt mit den neuen Waisenkinder umgehen❤.
Es ist soooo schön euch zuzuschauen.
Liebe Grüße aus Germany 😊😊
Lundi & Jabulani are such good Ellie's, they both know little Phabeni needs a safe and loving family and they seem to welcome new babies into the herd like instantly. I'm sure the calmness atmosphere is partly that Phabeni being calm and not scared/nervous of them also helps a lot. It will be interesting to see how the rest of the herd will act with Phabeni joining them. Awesome job Lundi & Jabu you 2 are the best!! 🐘🐘🐘❤💞☺️
Your videos are the best on the internet. Very relaxing to watch.
Glad you like them! Thank you ♥️
@@herdelephantorphanageyes so many blessings! ❤
This is so special and elephants are magnificent creatures in every way ❤
I ❤ you guys and what you do 🤗 And of course I ❤️ all the beautiful 🐘's
Thank you so much! 😊
What a sight for sore eyes, watching Phabeni walk up to Lundi and start suckling! It looked so natural, as if he were with his natural parents. Jabu's calming effect was evident. What a unique group of eles these are. I'm so happy and excited to see this expansion of the herd. But one step at a time ... Good job, everyone!🙏❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️

Congratulations @HERD. What an INCREDIBLE & JOYOUS moment!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
BRAVO👏👏👏👏
THIS is ALL of YOUR hard work of raising Phabeni for THIS MOMENT!! I am doing the happy dance! They all are so sweet together. Thank you Lundi and Jabu! Omgosh! Just BEAUTIFUL!❤🙏🏻✌️💪
This is so wonderful to see. I was worried for a little while when he just wanted to sleep in the reed bed instead of meeting the others. Looks like hes ready to start the next chapter😊
This is wonderful. I am new to the channel, and so grateful to have found it. I find myself beaming with pride and joy for Phabeni! I have spent quite a bit of time on the website learning about Herd, and getting to know and understand the mission, the people involved, and of course the precious elephants. Congratulations to Phabeni, and to all of you!
I got choked up a bit when Phabeni started to suckle. Lundi is a loving, motherly ellie for the little orphan who has experienced so much uncertainty in his short life. I felt Phabeni is going to be ok with the herd as they embrace him and take him under their protection.
He's so tiny! He really latched onto Lundi's nipple. He's not shy at all. He decided pretty quickly that Lundi is now his mum. Beautiful video. Thanks so much for sharing that special meeting with all of us. ❤
Oh my heart. ❤❤❤❤❤ so good to see Little Phabeni with his Mum and big brother. ❤️😍 🥰 ♥️
Between seeing Phabeni run so fast, Lammie was surprised, and then watching Lundi work her magic today, it's been a wonderful week.
Elephants are such incredible beings. ❤
This is an amazing turning point for Phabeni - he is so smart with his baby elephant instincts. Congratulation Herd EO 😍
Im from south Africa but watching from Dubai❤❤❤❤So so precious.I miss these moments of south Africa.😘😘🙏🙏🙏🙏🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
Another miracle at the HERD, WELL DONE TO ALL ADINE, THE CARERS, DONORS AND SUBSCRIBERS.
I am so happy for Phabeni. Adine is a wonderful mom for the Ellys. But drawing comfort from one of his kind, after being orphaned .. well, there's just nothing like it. And Lundy certainly has experience raising a highly spirited young bull! : )
He is soo little, but so brave. We all need love and this little guy will be surrounded by it from his elephant and human family
Oh what a sweet, exciting moment! Little Phabeni seems to not be able to get enough of love and comfort from Lundi!
I have been waiting for this day…..tear of joy to see Lundi accept little Phabeni…..and his journey into the herd begins.😊 Well done all of you! Without your dedication and patience these orphans none of this would be possible. ❤❤
Hip hip hooray!!! 🎉🎈🎊 Couldn't have asked for a better outcome & how emotional it was! 😭🤧Phabeni approached the situation with no qualms whatsoever, extraordinary for a little baby. I'm so happy for him, the herd & for all of you who have helped make this happen 👏👍 Makes all your efforts, worry & sleepless nights worth it 🥰🙏❤️🐘
Lundi’s like I got a mouthful of grass where do you want me to stand😊 tiny little bull
Absolutely amazing and beautiful to watch this baby and his new heard just take him in. Thank you for all your hard work, love and support. You are all my heros! 💕🥰🐘🐘💕
That was wonderful to see. 🥰 I've been waiting for this introduction with lots of exitement. Lundi is a great mom, and I think this little feisty personality will be thriving with her as a mom. The sucle thing is so sweet, what a wonderful way to bond. Thank you for letting us see this wonderful meeting. Your videos is the best, they always gives me a smile, and starts my day with love.. I'm so happy I found you, and can follow this sweet animals.
First suckle since being separated from his mom. Must be so comforting. Well done HERD. will be going on walks with the entire herd in no time.
I cried to see Lundi and Phabeni bonding. All thanks to the incredible job all of you do. Thank you for sharing moments like this.
😍Thank you for this very moving moment when Phabeni finds the Lundi pacifier and what a wonderful acceptance from this female
This brought tears to my eyes. All that love, care, kindness, knowledge and hard work is coming together. Congratulations and greetings from Canada ❤️🐘❤️
This is incredibly heartwarming to watch ❤
