Retire Tembo and Sunda: Elephants Are Dying Out in U.S. Zoos

Very interesting article:

Please help us retire Tembo and Sunda from the Topeka Zoo to The Elephant Sanctuary!

We have a dream for Tembo and Sunda that we believe can come true if enough people will join us in demanding their freedom. After decades in chains -- these elephants are now unchained but are still confined to a small yard, are forced to endure all kinds of weather extremes and are "stored" in a barn for at least half the year where zoo patrons cannot even see them -- we believe they deserve a chance to spend their last few years in an environment more conducive for elephants. The Topeka Zoo simply cannot provide the best environment for these magnificent, intelligent beings, which is why The Elephant Sanctuary has generously agreed to transport and care for Tembo and Sunda at their 2,700-acre paradise at no cost to the Zoo. Please help us get them there.

Retire Tembo and Sunda
