Love, love, love to you Adine, to all your dedicated carers and the beautiful elephants living their best lives in peace and security because of your hard work xxx
Going by the HERD RU-vid videos, Adine and her team are quite amazing people. Adine talks about the emotional injury the orphans present with. It seems the elephants pick up empathy and love from the humans caring for them, making their recovery faster.
I Love the work Adine does and appreciate her expended knowledge. I believe baby elephants deserve and live the female contact she gives to them. Thank you 💚🐘
This woman is due a huge award for her work. Inspiration to everyone who cares for these beautiful intelligent giants. Thankyou from the bottom of my hear u really are special
I hope our UK’s Prince William (who loves elephant conservation) can highlight your cause. He should award you Dame-hood for your work, then HERD will really be put on the international stage.
Young lady you are a saint, for your care for elephants.🐘. One day you’ll see all of them together again. Praise God for you and all that you do for the Herd. Elephants are my most favorite animal in the KINDOM. 🙏❤️❤️
My admiration for Adine never ceases to grow. The carers are up there as well. Her letter today speaking of her feelings following Phabeni's death floored me. I wish the whole world felt as I do--especially those who have the financial means to contribute to a cause that is crucial to our own survival as a species. Much love and hugs to the entire HERD team.
You really are such a special gift to these precious elephants, rhinos, water buffalo, as well as Lambie and the goat I'm sorry I forget the name. It must be very difficult to lose a baby Elle. I hope and pray Phabeni comes out of this issue he is dealing with. I wish I could have done what you are doing, but it's too late for me. God bless you ❤Adine.
Gloria Asasira is taking on such a commendable career with her work in tracking and protecting the endangered mountain gorillas. She will have a positive influence on the future of the mountain gorillas.
Why do the orphan elephants wear blankets? Knowing that elephants are so intelligent but are restricted to small pens in zoos and chained up in circuses breakd my heart. We humans are inhumane and the cruelest species on the planet. 😢
Thank you for caring. Animals don't have a voice you are their voice to bring to our attention. I have learned so much about elephants,. Tanks to the team and you. God Bless all.
God Bless you Adine. Little Khanyisa, who is not so little anymore is thriving thanks to you and the other carers at HERD. All that love and dedication just shows in Khanyisa's blue eyes and her pretty pink skin. And now our little man Phabeni is being looked after by you and both his human carers and elephant carers. Good on you Setombe! You good girl, you. Thank you and God Bless you Adine. xox
Maybe having women run things for a while might stop the senseless wars that rage on earth and destroy habitat. Here's to all of the people who work to save wildlife around the world... and especially these giant creatures who can teach us so much.
Beautiful Once in awhile a woman enters the world stage and uses it as a ray of hope to bring attention to the disenfranchised May God bless them abundantly
Siya and Rachel let the mighty GOD keeps on blessing you abundantly you were joined by him he knew that you will take care of his orphans continue to do good love you
