  • Adine Roode has a wealth of knowledge in the field of conservation, having spent her life surrounded by wildlife, and having been heavily involved in the rehabilitation of orphaned and injured rhinos and rescued elephants. With the growing number of elephant orphans in South Africa, Adine used this knowledge, as well as her palpable passion, to set up HERD, which rescues, rehabilitates and releases orphaned elephants back into a wild environment so that they can have a second chance at life.

Their tenderness for one another and their carers assures me that good relations can be established with other elephant herds. We are blessed by you and your team's knowledge and wisdom.

It is very togetherness with the wildlife animals as human. We are now in 2021 november and see all happy elephants in Herd and little calf Khanyisa just 2 years old we have seen the sadness when Khanyisa came to the orphanage you stay there every day sleep with Khanyisa and give her milk together with the carers. That was the moment I respect you Adine very much the hard work and the love for the elephants and wildlife. I love the Herd Hoedspruit Jabulani

I believe we would all love to be there with you holding that baby elephant and giving it the love and security she needs right now to get thru this healing process and to create that trust back to that poor creature after enduring such horrible torture. It brought tears to my eyes when I saw the first video of her rescue. It truly broke my heart to see that. The immense courage to want to live after such a crime is extraordinary. What is it on this planet that is so deeply inbeded in us all that makes us want to stay and go through the things we do when we know in our hearts this pain and torture doesn't exist on the otherside. Why do we stay when we know this??? The reason i believe that whatever it is, it is so much more important , and powerful than enduring this life.
    God be with you Adine !! Much love and light to you, your fantastic team, and all of those majestic creatures under your umbrella of love and care. ✌♥️👋🙏🙏🙏🌞

Thank you so very much for your beautiful and important ( in fact crucial) role in these elephants 's lives!!! I find myself wanting and needing to watch the HERD videos each night and of course little Khanysia ( and the Jubalani herd ) and the precious moments which you and the dedicated carers spend nurturing them are so important to me each and every night.
