Winkie (one of the elephants at the sanctuary) came from a small Zoo in Madison, Wisconsin. She is a success story that the local animal rights groups have always discussed but since I came to Madison a few years after she and Penny were removed from the zoo, I never got the full details. Now I can read more about her and this wonderful sanctuary!
Thank you for posting this link, QSA. It's going under my "Favorites."
Beautiful pictures, Randy. I dream of visiting Africa someday. Elephants certainly are AMAZING creatures.
