Since 1995, 24 elephants have found sanctuary in Tennessee. They live our their lives in freedom to roam the natural habitat of the sanctuary, making new friends and special relation ships as the years pass.
Today this is what Mom and Dad Found!
Lots of VERY long fence with barbed wire!If they had the corrected numbers they could have punched them in and got a private tour! BUT that costs a $2,000 donation for the elephants.. I'm guessin that's not happening today~
Do these look like ELEPHANTS????????????
Sighhhhhhhhhhh........ So Mom and Dad do not think they will be seeing any sanctuary Elephants!
That sounded like so much fun! Bummer you didn't get to go!
ReplyDeleteAAAaaaaaaaaaah MAN! You were soooooooo close! Thank you for finding them for me.
ReplyDeleteWe did find where they were and THAT is a challenge. Remember the movie "Deliverance"?
ReplyDeleteDeliverance? THAT is not good! LOL that almost made me spit my tea on my monitor.

ReplyDeleteis wonderful. Too bad we can't visit them but their reluctance to become a "Zoo" is understandable.
The memorials to the elephants that have passed away are very moving.
Yes.. we have a zoo where we can see Elephants. What they have done is the right thing to do. We sort of thought that maybe there would be a clearing where we could look down on them or something. As Liam says "we were in a JUNGLE!" and the jungle didn't make me as uneasy as the human occupants :)
