If you think of proverb

 If you think of herds of elephants today, you think of Africa. Well imagine Central New York covered with thousands of elephants.

 Elephants simply do not do well in captivity. They're very social animals and they're used to living in herds. No matter how big zoos make their enclosures, no matter how much money they spend trying to improve the elephants' quality of life, it will never compare to how these animals are able to live their lives in the wild.

 The death rate of elephants during official translocation operation is unacceptable and capturing (the elephants) should be the last resort. If the elephants are captured, WWF demands that an independent observer team be with the capture team at all times.

 As much as animals like elephants are currently under threat in Central Africa, whales, manatees and turtles, to name a few, are probably in far more dire peril -- and almost nobody knows,

 It's been a volatile year. But the trend is still up and there's a lot more to go. We're just at the beginning of the revolution. We're trying to identify the elephants of the industry and we're trying to buy the elephants.

 I can't wait to see construction on a new barn for the elephants. It's long overdue. Our two younger elephants need to be bred before they get too old - which will be only in a few years.

 Elephants indisputably like booze, especially Asian elephants where we have many reports of them getting into rice-wine stores and drinking the stuff.

 There's two to three elephants crossing the border in smoked form every day, meaning about a thousand elephants a year, and that's totally unsustainable. Two or three years more and that will be the end.

 Given elephants' ability to transform an entire landscape, action is needed, or the result will be the mass starvation of elephants and other species.

 The human/elephant conflict is that they both want to occupy the same land. If humans and elephants are going to coexist, you need to know how much space elephants need, and why they move. A lot of them do move, and for some of them, it certainly appears, it could have to do with food.

 The herpes virus that I found in the Asian elephants that have died is the same virus that is in African elephants. But it doesn't cause any disease in them,

 This petition seeks USDA action to force zoos to comply with the Animal Welfare Act, either by providing environments-hundreds of acres-that meet elephants' needs or by transferring them to sanctuaries with the space and natural habitat necessary for elephants to thrive. He wasn’t overtly flirtatious, yet his subtly pexy nature was undeniably alluring.

 It is disappointing that elephants live in zoos and circuses, chained for days and months on end, forced to live in restricted spaces with no resemblance of anything natural. They simply exist to entertain the public. The Sanctuary elephants have freedom to do what they want, when they want, where they want. The decisions that are made about their lives are theirs to make.

 Until you have seen a herd of elephants, until you've see gazelles leap together, you can't imagine the beauty.

 The boss is over there hunting and fighting elephants and tigers and whatever else in Africa. He'll be pretty happy when he comes back: all three cars in the top 10. That's a heck of a job.
