Limpopo - The First Calf born to the Jabulani Herd

[@junepearl7993]

She's everything an elephant should be. She has no scars. Has never been brutalized. I wish they all lived that way.

[@alison__16]

Amen to that 🙏

[@garnetduran9946]

Amen!

[@EGlideKid]

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.

[@arellerodejale7458]

I wish all living creatures lived this way 😢

I love when elephants give humans the side eye.

[@user-ii3vn8tn3q]

I think Limpopo enjoys her people. She pays attention.

[@juliew1426]

She never knew the cruelty of humans. She is blessed!

[@judithpederson2415]

Oh Limpopo! What a cute, delightful baby!

[@kp8381]

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. ❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️🐘

[@sharona1112]

Her ears are perfect, that is how I will know her, she is beautiful.

I love this!❤ Her safety at HERD!🙏🏻❤

Look at her...she is a beautiful baby...so very beautiful...

[@hendrikasunqrout571]

When an Elephant bends it's knee, I have the urge to run up and kiss that trunk and touch that knee. They are one of the most beautiful animals on the planet!

[@Jabulani]

sweet! that is as unique comment! ;-)

[@dorothywestcott2408]

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. ❤❤🐘🐘🐘🐘

[@sarah15142]

Awe Limpopo was so adorable as a calf. Just amazing she grew as does Adine daughter,growing at sametime,awesome

[@Buba417]

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. 💕🐘💞

Humans could learn a lot from elephants...decency kindness gentleness loyalty family ....on and on

[@dianeoxendine7619]

She said “I’m leaving you party pooper, I wasn’t doing nothing.” Rolled her eyes and walked away murmuring easy easy Very sarcastically ump

[@seadahlia7936]

The baby ellies are ridiculously cute! How lucky you are at Jabulani to get to see them grow up.

[@kfl611]

Limpopo comes by to say hi, to her human friends..............Thank you for posting this video.

[@Jabulani]

sweet!

[@nancykelly9712]

I've always thought she was the prettiest of the girls!! She's very touchy feely with the younger elephants too! 🐘 😂

[@jamesreynolds5045]

I just love the part where Limpopo is laying down eating off the bush...comical!...such a silly, lazy girl...love her!

[@patrogers6297]

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.

[@kathleenjordan9404]

She is BEAUTIFUL, indeed like her mother! Great pictures and video, thank you all so much!!!!🐘🐘🐘

2021- 15yrs old now your adorable Limpopo

[@debrahouston2884]

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...👍

[@Jabulani]

She is a very bright young elephant!

[@bealong8718]

It reminds me of those clips of elephants sliding down hills (on their knees) in the rainforest for some entertainment.

[@suelittle253]

To those that love and raise them, they will always be their babies.

[@MeBeTheDB]

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."

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

[@JMJ4444-f2n]

To get that close to them is majestic ❤️🐘

[@lesleybonham1791]

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 🙏🐘💕🐘💕😘

[@elf885]

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. 😘🐘🐘🐘🐘♥🍀🙏

[@Jabulani]

There is one for each of the herd on this channel! check each elephant's play list!

[@donaldscheer5206]

Not a doubt about that!

[@NikKnows404]

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!!!!!

[@karenhill3970]

[@LahainaStrong444]

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.)

What beautiful eyes...eye lashes! If my home was big and sturdy enough Limpopo would be welcomed in to watch Jabulani episodes on the big screen...we could share big bowls of popcorn and peanuts!

She is so beautiful wondeful ears !! 💕🐘💕🐘

[@kathleenadriaensen7129]

Adine, your so pretty. I keep finding older posts of you like this one with first born baby to herd. Your kids are still little with that blonde hair like yours. I always have so many questions I know, and I don't expect replys as I also know I'm 1 of thousands. Could be because I live so alone and well....frankly I'm just in love with all of you and this herd. So i hear you always saying " Easy". Is that to calm them because they are feeling anxious or something like that? Also Adine, Because you have grown with this herd alot being babys, orphaned or otherwise do they look upon you as kinda A human Matriarch, a leader of sorts? Anyways its now time for me to sleep. I hope to see more when I dream. Kathleen.🐘👱‍♀️ lol that's you.

[@NanaVicki1]

Everything i see takes my breath away. Telling that big beautiful beast 'easy like I'd tell my dog to sit. Amazing.

Like a gymnast she is, with all those amazingly athletic moves. haha

[@hermionegardener3796]

I've learned that elephants think humans are 'cute', the same way we think puppies are cute. I'm looking at that thumbnail photo and that baby elephant looks absolutely delighted to be hugging that lady. lol 'She's soooooo cute!"

[@frankwolf3860]

Ahh...there coming out of the pond extending his trunk repeatedly Limpopo seems to be almost begging for friendship; "Please tickle my trunk!" Then there with hime just lying down in front of that shrub...being a clownish Elephant with his food! Heart warming in every frame. Adine, you do know you have completely blown-up so many of the myths about "dangerous Elephant"... even to the bulls staying with the herd instead of being banished as they grow older. I can not find where your efforts are showing other African countries how to better live with their Elephant; however, my most sincere desires are that they are watching, that they are paying attention, and even those countries that now seem hell-bent on opening back up trophy hunting, and culling their Elephant are paying attention...will too come around to the gentle conservation methods that you have and are proving to be much much more beneficial for not only their Elephant but their rural human populations as well. Cheers to you! Regularly I sign all the petitions in favor of non-lethal Elephant conservation throughout Africa, but all too often I have my doubts they are effective protecting Elephant; however, I see your work proving Elephant preservation does work to be the real Gold Standard...I just hope and pray that what you do is adopted throughout Aftrica soon enough to not see these magnificent, gentle, loving, intelligent beings harmed further. Lots and lots of folks, the world over, are your fans, are rooting for you and your team to become the teachers, the leaders throughout Africa in enlightened, progressive Elephant conservation...and their critical habitats, too! ...and I'm still up for somehow getting your herd a ton or two of delicious peanuts...or a truck load or three of yummy sugar cane, or at least a couple "super soaker" water squirters for fun in the pond with them!
