    I realized Khanisya has more Mom's them we probably know. When she went into the deep end, I found myself getting stressed. 😁 I wonder if all of you realize how much of the world your team and these elephants have touched. Thank you for sharing. ❣️

      Everytime she swims and I can only see her pink trunk/snorkel, I worry, can she paddle her little legs enough? can she float? is she ok? a mums woworry never ends, and I think while she has a lot of Ellie-mums, a lot of human mums have her back too xx

    She seemed to be distant from the herd in many of the videos since she attacked ( maybe not best word) Timisa. I wondered about how she's been and it is quite sad for me too see her not mingling with the girls and she really seemed to love you Adine. ! Poor Bubi really must have been devastated from early development to have these moods. Do we know anything about her upbringing. ! I hope she one day can overcome her worries and distrust. I found her really taken by Khanyisa. And with Lundi at the beginning ; now she stays away. Like I said prayers for big Bubi. She has a lot to offer the herd!!😞🙏💞💖💖

      I honestly feel like Bubi gets mad that she wasn’t “chosen” to be khanisa’s nanny. I remember she use to try to coax her from Lundi in the beginning. Even Tokwe did too. The 3 dominant older females ALL WANTED TO BE THE MAIN NANNY. I’m telling you Bubi is mad that Khanisa is not her baby. She is starting to resent the other females as well and this is not good. I feel like she takes her frustrations out on Adine because she thinks Adine takes her baby away at night to the nursery.

Bubi is certainly very affectionate with the baby, and always puts her front leg out when she is near. Although Lundi is always there when Khanyisa needs her to be. They appear to be well suited for each other---both having independent natures.

    I know everyone has a theory here re Bubi, but I wanted to share that since her mother was taken by a poacher, and she was a wild elephant, she may mistrust humans at important times.
    Perhaps the group had rifles that day and she smelled them, or perhaps she smelled lions - humans can be smelly and noisy snacks that attract predators. She may have been saying it's time to get the people out of here, Adine. Maybe one day, when Khanyisa does't need as much milk, Bubi will start chasing people off. I don't think that would be ornery or hormonal or whatever people are opining: I think that would show intelligence and survival skills by a young female who may one day lead the herd.

      I think elephants love to swim for many reasons. It cools them off and it probably feels good in the deep water where they're buoyant, taking stress of their joints. They're big, heavy animals that walk many miles everyday. Getting all that weight off of tired feet, back, and joints must feel good! Swimming is one activity in which they can relax and just have fun! I love sightings like this!

    Bubi: Grrr!
    Sebakwe: Hey, be cool (walks past)
    Bubi: No :( I don’t want to be cool, I’m upset!
    Sebakwe: (stops, steps back, stands) I said, be cool.
    Bubi: ...hmph! Fine..

    Pink baby Sunshine coming out of the dam. 💓💕💞 🐘 she’s so sweet. I get a bit anxious every time she goes swimming. That little body floating adrift and the pink trunk up in the air. Omg, I keep saying to myself “it’s going to be fine, they know what they’re doing” ...
    I like to think that Sebakwe is the father of the Herd’s new generation: Limpopo, Klasserie, Pisa, Mambo and Zindoga. Is it possible that they’re all Sebakwe’s offsprings?
    Bubi needs cuddles to be in a better mood. Maybe? 😂🐘❤️ A little love won’t hurt ...
    But seriously, you’ll never know what made her so upset. It’s clear she had a rough start in her life. Ellies are very sensitive.

    @W1728now 3 года назад +3

    She was really in a bad mood, but I think we can all have those days, yet I do believe sebakwe was blocking her from doing anything she would regret! It’s hard to see Khanyisa in the deep end!

  • @Kim-lc3fv
    @Kim-lc3fv 4 года назад +10

    That is quite peculiar with Bubi. Why should she suddenly be angry with Adine whom she has known for over 20 years? Was she jealous of the other cows taking off with Khanyisa?...

    • @maryharris2330
      @maryharris2330 3 года назад

      Could Bubi have been trying to tell Adine she was worried that Khanyisa was in trouble? (thinking like an over protective mother myself)

  • @WayneBriggs
    @WayneBriggs 3 года назад +4

    Nobody knows why Bubi is in bad mood, me neither. Think about this, maybe her trauma stems from an incident for Bubi when she was near water?

    Quick question: Hope does Khanyisa know how to swim in the deep end? Just curious as she’s still a baby. Would Lundi help her if she needed it?
    Love watching your videos of these precious majestic giants!

    • @sarahstrong7174

      All the elephants seem to take responsibility for looking after the young ones. I am sure any of the elephants would help Khanyisa & let her grab on if there was an issue in the water but she can use her trunk as a snorkel even when the rest of her goes under.

    Very interesting seeing Bubi like that. I too have noticed that she seems to be a loner sometimes, except when it comes to being around Khanyisa! Wish I knew what Bubi is thinking of all the time. I love that Kumbura and Limpopo are so protective of Khanyisa too and that Khanyisa trusts them so very much. It is such a joy watching this little pink baby every day.

    Thank you for once again repeating this video. It’s one of my favorites. Khanyisa is so small and enjoyable to watch. She’s nicely growing now, and very happy, which makes all of us happy. I’m hoping to go farther south to meet all of these wonderful elephants. For now, a trip to Kenya’s Giraffe Manor for several days. ❤
