If you would like to meet the herd, you can be inspired, enlightened, educated and enthused by a memorable and respectful opportunity to meet and learn more about some of the Jabulani herd elephant bulls and their passionate carers. Arrive at sunrise to meet a few members of an extraordinary family, the Jabulani Herd. Delve deeper into the biology and physiology of these gentle giants while learning about each elephant’s unique personalities and remarkable stories.
The respectful 90-minute experience occurs at the HERD Homestead, which borders the HERD Orphanage. The Jabulani herd elephants that you will meet represent the rest of the herd, which they join a little later to continue foraging in the wild. There will be between two to three elephants introduced who remain behind a low partition, creating a respectful distance between the elephants and the visitors. Visitors can provide snacks to each elephant and take a snapshot of the memorable experience with the guidance of the carers.
Complimentary coffee and tea with biscuits will be provided. Following your experience, you can purchase a souvenir in our gift shop, with proceeds going towards HERD Trust.
