That's really sad to read. I enjoyed seeing that exhibit. Elephants are pretty impressive close up.

The $58,000 it spends each year on each elephant could instead be steered to the WCS's elephant conservation work in Asia and Africa, Sanderson said, where it already spends $2 million a year in 10 countries.

Yesh, what the heck is a Zoo doing keeping animals anyway?

Glad to hear that they will have none.
Now all they have to do is get rid of the rest of those pesky animals and stop calling themselves a Zoo.

I don't get it, no more Elephants on the Bengali Express monorail?

They should rebuild a new exhibit similar to what they did for the Gorilla Encounter.

Let me guess, the donkeys will be saved?
