cirquelover, thanks for the update and eyewitness account.

Ron, awesome news that the little dude is back with mom. I hope you are able to go through with the plans for the new enclosure. Did you ever see that Nature episode on PBS where the two former circus elephants were reunited? It makes me cry every time I see it. Here's some info about it.

I remember that, it was heart warming and sad all in the same breath!

I saw on the news tonight that Rose-tu and her baby are getting along perfectly. They showed a pic of baby sleeping with Mom, it was so cute!

Okay! Staff preview viewing was yesterday. I got to work early to head down to the elephant barn and snap a few pictures:

He had a little trouble finding his legs....

but managed to get up and moving.

Then he promptly flopped down and went to sleep!

Rose-Tu looks so proud!

Behind the two you can see the "howdy gate", used to introduce the other cows to the new baby. It will be slowly altered to allow more access until they are commfortable enough to unite the group. In the first photo you can see Shine peeking through, in the last is Rose-Tu's buddy, Chendra.
