What You Can Do
The Hawthorn Elephant Rescue
8 Hawthorn Elephants have been rescued and brought to The Elephant Sanctuary with each arrival being broadcast live on the Sanctuary’s elecam, http://www.tappedintoelephants.com.
Billie and Frieda were the last pair to arrive at The Elephant Sanctuary at approximately noon CST on February 9th. Coincidentally, this was also the one year anniversary of Lota’s death from advanced tuberculosis. Most, but not all, of the herd are now home at TES.
