    Love those care givers....sometimes I don’t think people realize the difficult life they have chosen....
    It’s such a selfless part of them....very difficult.....but we love them for it....because without them...we would lose these beautiful beautiful elephants...so I will shout their praises as much as I can...

      They're orphans or their offspring so used to the caring humans around them. Wild elephants are more cautious and hence agressive, defending the herd.

      They are certainly more intelligent and have a sense of awareness than what most think. But still the elephants who respond favorably when treated compassionately do respond favorably but then by nature there still will be elephants that will be adverse no matter what and you still need to respect their size and their feelings too for that matter! That ones who act adversely should not be mistreated;people just need to get out of their way😂😂😂!!!

    Thank you HERD for showing Khanyisa foraging with the herd on nice green vegetation. I love the way they allow Khanyisa to rest her little legs for a short while then nudge her gently when the rest is long enough and it's time to get back on her feet. And when she is back up, a little check up is carried out to make sure all parts are in order. These creations of God are truly wonderfully made!
