Baby Elephant Khanyisa Shows Off Her Special South African Blanket! 🇿🇦

YOU CAN WIN THIS BLANKET! We are giving away two of Khanyisa’s new South African blankets to celebrate her birthday and raise awareness for orphans like Khanyisa. We’re also giving away two pre-loved multicoloured blankets made by South African company, Whimsical Collection. You have until the end of the month to get your name in our Khanyisa Birthday Lucky Blanket Draw, to stand a chance to win one of four baby elephant-sized blankets! 🐘

Today, Khanyisa tries on one of her new South African flag blankets. They’re her biggest blankets yet, and this one easily fits over her one tonne body. She thoroughly inspects the new blanket, feeling it against her body and, of course, putting it in her mouth. Satisfied with her new blankie, Khanyisa continues foraging, wrapped in its warmth.

Khanyisa’s special new blankets were made by Nita Smith from Warriors for Africa’s Wildlife and her team – Audrey Neeser, Angela de Jager, and Kieran Rimmer – especially for Khanyisa’s fourth birthday. WAW is no longer active, but Nita and her team still regularly send us Little Mhambi’s to help us raise funds (you can find the Little Mhambi's here: https://herd.org.za/product/little-mhambi/). In addition to these two flag blankets, the team also sent us nine other smaller blankets to keep future orphans warm.

Khanyisa was estimated to have been born around 26 September 2019, based on her size when she was rescued. That puts her birthday around South Africa’s Heritage Day, which is celebrated on 24 September. This means Khanyisa’s new South African flag blankets are just perfect for her birthday!
