Lundi has shown amazing talents with her throwing skills over the years. Seeing her throw water and now sand is hilarious and shows her intelligence.

That was so wonderful, I was laughing so hard at Lundi being the woman who means business, y’all don’t go messing with me Buffalo. And Tigere, your commentary laughing with joy. I love you all. The Elephants and carers and the whole HERD family fills my soul with joy. How blessed are we to witness such wonderful scenes. I shall never take them for granted. I’m so blessed to be alive and witness technology bringing Africa to my home in Newcastle Australia. ❤️❤️🐘❤️❤️

Funny Lundi and her constant vigilance against the buffalos. 🤣 I liked her feint of nonchalance and throwing dust in the air although that buffalo was really brave and totally unphased by her bravado. She could have just enjoyed the water like everyone else. 😂 That lone buffalo wasn't going to cause any harm. The contrast of the waterhole from what it was a few months ago is quite striking. Here in BC 🇨🇦 , we have entered our winter which is usually very wet with a lot of rainfall. In the wild, eles can sniff out water over long distances and even underground (the holes they dig can then be used by other animals and humans to get at the water). They also remember routes to water from many years ago. Magical eles. ❤️🐘❤️

It could create more revenue too so please everyone hit the share button and copy link. You don’t even have to actually send it to anyone for it to help. Thank you! That was really fun to watch Lundi and the herd in action. Thank you for helping with the water for all wildlife.

Lundi 🐘 is doing everything she can to get that buffalo 🐃 to move on. But it stood its ground against her. But then when the other elephants 🐘 went to help her it decided to move on. Wow what a difference a month makes looking at the dam in September and then again in October. It is so sad to see the water holes drying up. Thank you for keeping a few with water in them. That is something the animals cannot live without. Have a beautiful day Jabulani herd family ❤️🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘❤️

Oh Lundi, you flunked the lesson about water sharing, but you excel at stubborn intimidation. That buffalo deserves points for staking his claim, but was wise to scram when team Lundi approached the playing field. At least the group of hippos were having a good laugh in the water while they wagered their bets. "Hey Harold, I bet you 2 floating ducks that the ellie wins". "OK Marvin, I'll bet 3 snapping turtles that the buffalo charges". Lundi doesn't play fair by throwing dirt in buffalo eyes. All she had to do was call for Mambo and the chase around the sacred water hole would have been ON! Great fun!

It was wonderful to see them swim, all of them, Zindoga the ladies man, Lundi and the buffalo, and the herd go to cover her back. The narration was beautiful and sounded perfect. But I was afraid that last scene was coming, and it brought tears. I guess they are fortunate for your help. Now I wonder how the hippos cope. It has been very dry here in the American Midwest as well, especially since June. I worry about wildfires here almost daily.

Wow that water hole used to be like 5 feet deep (or more). It's crazy that is all dried up so much that its hard and crunchy to walk on. I really do hope that you're able to provide enough water to the animals around the reserve until MoNa provides enough rain to replenish the area. (MoNa=Mother Nature).
