I love that grandma in the water! Can you imagine NEVER having been in a river and then getting to swim? I hope this grandma has everything lovely for the rest of her life!๐
As for the people who chained her, you will have to imagine my speech to them๐
I want to go in help her scrub her back!
The clink of the chain coming off her leg was so satisfying.
I asked Siri to show me a happy elephant and he gave me this (yes, my Siri is a he, and he’s from Ireland). Eleven and a half minutes of happy heffalumps. ๐
If you want to know more about Khanyisaโs injuries below is a video that goes over her first year. This poor baby went through a LOT. There are shots of her injuries, but before that there are words explaining her injuries.
That is a VERY happy elephant! So beautiful.
