Adine joined the herd as they were walking towards the dam for a welcomed swim during the heat of the day.
Mambo and Setombe picked up a scent on one of the trees, possible from the wild elephants.
Bubi was not in a good mood at all and not entirely happy with Adine being there, and it expressed clearly! Bubi does not seem to trust females very much, though we do not know why, possibly from her earlier start in life. She can be being protective over Khanyisa too. It is difficult to say 100%. But she carried on for quite a while! She does have her moments. Many notice that she does not seem to spend time with the other cows of the herd either, keeping to herself a lot. She is quite a complex elephant, but with a heart of gold!
In the meantime, Khanyisa was being whisked away with Lundi, Tokwe, Limpopo, and Kumbura into the deeper part of the dam for a proper swim. They didn't stay too long before returning to shallower waters, and a little pink trunk following in tow, often holding on to Kumbura and Limpopo's trunks! It was just too sweet.
Soon they moseyed out of the dam, and returned to the bush while some of the other elephants stayed on for a longer swim, including Timisa and Bubi, still in her mood!
