Jolie and her kids traveled to the African country of Namibia earlier this month to open the Shiloh Wildlife Sanctuary — and PEOPLE has exclusive photos from their trip.The Sanctuary, which cares for elephants and rhinos that have fallen victim to poaching or abuse, is located at the N/a’an ku sê Foundation.The cause is special to Shiloh, 11, who was born in Namibia.“Her face lit up when she saw the sanctuary for the first time,” a source tells PEOPLE. “The name was a surprise to her and she was beaming. She and her brothers and sisters moved around very quietly as the newly rescued elephants were still settling in.” During their five-day stay, Jolie, 42, and Shiloh met with N/a’an ku sê founder Rudie and Marlice van Vuuren (whome Jolie has known for 16 years) and got hands-on experience working with the wild animals.They even caught up with a cheetah named Shiloh, whom Jolie first encountered as a cub in 2015.Jolie concluded her visit with a private meeting with President Dr. Hage Geingob and Madame Monica Geingos, First Lady of the Republic of Namibia, to discuss conservation in Namibia and her family’s ongoing commitment to the country.“It is a privilege to work with N/a’an ku sê and be able to contribute to conservation in Namibia,” Jolie said before leaving.

Click through the gallery above to see past and present pics of the birthday kids — and prepare to feel old. To see ALL the Jolie-Pitt kids through through the years, click here.While the past year has definitely had its ups and downs for the whole Jolie-Pitt fam, the kids HAVE had their fair share of fun. Both Brad and Angie have made sure to spend quality time with Knox and Vivienne despite the tumultuous relationship they now have with each other. Back in January, Angelina took the twins on a shopping spree amidst her and Brad’s custody battle, and the threesome seemed to have a great day out and about together. Knox, Vivienne, and Angelina hit up the Malibu Country Mart mall, and during their outing, we couldn’t help noticing how much Knox looks like his famous dad! A few months later, in March, Angie took all the kids — including Knox and Vivienne — to Cambodia where they all got to attend the premiere of the actress’ film First They Killed My Father. On the family vacay, Angie was photographed enjoying a tuk tuk ride with her twins, and both children seemed to be having a good time. We can’t wait to see how Knox and Vivienne celebrate their special day this year, after all, last year they kept things pretty low-key. On their eighth b-day, Brad and Angie treated their youngsters to pancakes at The Griddle Café in West Hollywood.“Brad and Angelina made a big fuss over the two kids. Everyone was in a great, happy mood,” an eyewitness at the café EXCLUSIVELY told HollywoodLife.com at the time. “They seemed happy, like a normal family… [Vivienne] was cute and excited that it was her special day.” Aw! And while their parents are no longer together THIS year, we have a feeling neither Brad nor Angie would miss their twins’ big day for the world! HBD, Vivienne and Knox!

'Her main goal is to teach them how to be compassionate, fearless, respectful, humble, and curious all at the same time’It must be difficult having high-achieving parents, and Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are no exception, having set the bar unrealistically high for their children.With multiple awards and achievements under their belts, it’s a lot to live up to for the Jolie-Pitt clan: Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11, and eight-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.Not only have Brad and Ange triumphed in Hollywood winning multiple Oscars and nominations between them, they have also succeeded in every career pool they have dipped their toes in, with Angelina alone being a celebrated, actress, filmmaker, humanitarian and even a wine producer.But it turns out Angelina won’t be competing with her children or putting any pressure on them to follow in her footsteps.In fact, it seems like she cares much more about her children’s personal traits rather than their academic ones and will support them whatever they choose to do.According to HollywoodLife.com, a source close to Angelina explained, ‘Whatever the kids choose to do in life, be it acting, or writing, or waitressing, Angie will be fully behind them and support them 100 per cent.’ The source continued: ‘She’s also telling them how smart and unique they are, and that they can achieve whatever they put their minds to. Her main goal is to teach them how to be compassionate, fearless, respectful, humble, and curious all at the same time.
