Baby elephant, Khanyisa pushes and chases young Timisa and tries to steal her food

  • Khanyisa seems to want to play (or steal Timisa's branches) much more than Timisa on this morning out in the bush, but how gently the two young elephant push-about amongst the bushes. Timisa is careful not to hurt Khanyisa but still stands her ground while Khanyisa gives her all to the game, using every technique she can think up. She pushes, chases, trunk-grabs, trunk-curls, kisses, and even slips her long thin pink trunk into Timisa's mouth in the effort to pinch a bite from Timisa's hard-earned foraged branches.
    The two youngsters continue at it for some time until Tokwe, Limpopo and Fishan all come running with a great protective trumpet and gather around their mischievous troops. Timisa settles down with adoptive mother, Tokwe beside her, while Khanyisa, with Tokwe's daughter, Limpopo next to her, soon takes up the game once more. Tokwe is the always incredible mother and matriarch, giving Timisa trunk-support and comfort, letting her know she is there, while Fishan who really has become an amazing support-bull to the females provides his guardianship until he realises the two young elephants aren't in danger. Limpopo is always beautifully helpful in her mother's matriarch duties.
    Eventually Adine helps Khanyisa get some of her own bark from the branches and Khanyisa gladly enjoys the help and attention.

    Khaynisa is taking advantage of Timisa innate kindness. Thank goodness she finally called for reenforcement, and the adults immediately sussed out the situation. This is a lesson for khanyisa. Timisa just grew in maturity here.

    Oh boy, did we just witness a lesson being taught today? Khanyisa being an aggresive, annoying tough girl today. Driving her big sister Tamisa a bit crazy. Finally, Limpopo, Fishan and Tokwe step in. At first I thought it was Tamisa trumpeting because she had, had enough - and boom all 3 big elephants appear out of no where surrounding Khanyisa and Timisa and breaking the whole thing up! Surrounding them and calming them down. Khanyisa not wanting to really give up yet, is given a gentle push to the side by Limpopo and Tokwe puts her trunk over Tamisa then giving a gentle push forward to walk away. Wow! I found this absolutely amazing! Lesson - no serious fighting, annoying or pushing in the family. Everyday there is something amazing to learn about these awesome gentle giants, and I'm loving every minute of it! Thanks Adine and all at Herd. Khanyisa was fresh today! Lol!

    This will go down as one of the more remarkable footages of the interaction between elephants. Timisa loves Khanyisa but at the same time Khanyisa’s bratty behavior became unbearable. The way Limpopo and Tokwe intervene and comfort is heartwarming. Fishan gives steadfast support to the females with just his calming presence. Peace again in the family. I’m so glad this was captured. Excellent footage!

    Ah yes a little snippet of Sunshine being the pestering toddler with big sis Timi because as all who have little ones know whatever you are eating ALWAYS looks more appealing and tastes so much better regardless if it’s the exact same thing or not,mom told me when we were small if she had food she really wanted to enjoy uninterrupted she’d wait until we were asleep.😄 I didn’t realize what she meant until my sister came along so I can definitely relate to Timisa in this instance but she’s so gentle and loving with Miss Pink Princess that I don’t think she minds that much my heart always melts watching these two they have an incredible bond. There’s nothing quite like the relationship between sisters it’s unlike no other and very special indeed I absolutely adore my little girl and can’t imagine my days without her,sisterly love is beautiful and priceless. Thank you for sharing this i was so looking forward to the video it’s definitely one of my favorites I’d absolutely love to see the photo of Lady Courageous and Sunshine “holding trunks” on some merch if possible either on a shirt or poster that’d be so precious.🤗🌈🐘☀️💞💞

    Timisa really shined in this video. While khanysia was being pushy and getting away with it due to Timisa not wanting to spoil her bravado. When I saw Timisa stop eating as Ms. Pushy had her trunk in Timisa mouth, and when I saw Timisa constantly back down and let khanysia push her around and eat her food, I knew right then and there that Timisa is really the winner here. Tokwe and Fishan also knew it. I love khanysia but in this video she went way too far for what elephants most consider good vs bad behavior. Thank goodness Adine didn't interfere and let the adults stop the bullying.

I don't think I have ever seen Khanysia that naughty before. Her personality is really coming out the older she gets. Then Tokwe, Limpopo and Fish went into protective mode. Just shows you how much love there is in this HERD both human and animal. ❤❤🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘❤❤

I wonder if she had just gotten frustrated getting her food or if she wanted to tease and love play darling Timisa, or both. It surely shows she has become "full elephant" and part of the herd. I love how all 3 came running on that call and how they got completely still together as if meditating and lowering the heightened energy. That was an amazing moment! They are very conscious being! Then Khanyisa still had some fire in her which surprised me. It doesn't seem to me it was only about food but what was it sisterly love, rivalry, attention seeking, spirited teasing? Thank Adine for this gem.

    Khanyisa is so cute being the typical annoying lil sister to Timisa...who has had it with her shenanigans and trumpets for mum...its funny how when they came running they immediatly surrounded the young calves and checked out the situation..those are some noses

    What a spoiled little pink girl and sweet Timisa. Tokwe, Limpopo and Uncle Fishan there in a flash. Lord how the 3 large elephants appeared. Hell on Earth if those 3 thought something was there trying to hurt the children.

    @Mountlougallops 3 года назад +12

    It’s like they held them together in their trunks to calm them. I can imagine how upsetting it was for Timi not knowing what to do. And of course Khanyisa is persistent. This is why she survived. It was beautiful elephant herd behavior. Thanks so much for capturing and sharing this interesting interaction.

    After putting up with the interference with great patience for a while I am glad that Timisa did eventually call for backup. This is unusual for Khanyisa. Wonder why she did get so pushy with Timisa? maybe Khanyisa finds it difficult t o strip bark all by herself ?.

    I think Khanysia is going into her terrible twos. The way she pushed Timisa around was pretty aggressive. Even though Timisa is the bigger of the two we have to remember she is still a baby. She is incredibly sweet and patient with Khanysia and plays big sis very well. Love these two together but glad the adults finally came over to break up whatever was going on. This is a true family and wonderful to watch.

I was not sure, but I guess she did after all the pushing she was getting from our LITTLE PRINCESS KHANYISA! SHE IS DEFINITELY GROWING INTO HERSELF!

      Yes, Timisa has a very gentle, soft, calm, balanced nature. She is an angel with really beautiful eyes. And one day she will be a graceful looking female elephant. So if she's trumpeting loudly here, then Khanyisa has really annoyed her too much. Khanyisa was probably having her hurricane day.

    What an endearing video! Got to see such wonderful aspects of their lives. Khaniysa,all along that little sister who just wants to annoy… or rather play? At 5.00 Khaniysa was a bit frustrated,didn't know what now… when Timisa just dropped the branch. It was only about 'play with me'!! At 12.00 onwards…… stalemate!
    Khaniysa surely getting naughty. Timisa too not less.
    The best part is that Timisa as the elder behaving like one . No pushing etc.
    And oh my goodness....The last part,with the elders just coming in to see that things get sorted.
    Am touched...Very emotional!

    Naughty Khanyisa!😄 She really is testing all the boundaries. It's a part of growing up, as is play. It's wonderful to see how confident she's become and how loving the entire herd is to her. Khanyisa is still a baby, and as such given much latitude in her playful behavior. Elephants are loving creatures teaching their young through modeling behaviors. Discipline comes more in ignoring unwanted behavior and gently guiding towards more acceptable behavior.
    In another herd, I have seen a female reprimand a much older adolescent, pushing it down and standing over it. This is rare, and was not intended to harm only to cease behavior. The adolescent was trying to steal a hard-earned root from the female and pushed aside her baby to get at it. Mother would not tolerate this! It came as a shock to the adolescent, as it was to us watching, and his trumpet was more in shock and indignation than in fear or pain. This minor skirmish was over in seconds, everyone returning to foraging without rancor. A small baby like Khanyisa would never be treated this way.
    Thank you so much for sharing these special moments in the lives of Khanyisa and the herd.💕🤗
