“We are pleased that the USDA enforced their regulations. We are also pleased that the elephants were released to the sanctuary where they can live out the remainder of their lives in a more natural setting.”
Carol Buckley
“The Elephant Sanctuary exists for two reasons. To provide a haven for old, sick or needy elephants in a setting of green pastures, old-growth forests, spring-fed ponds and a heated barn for cold winter nights. And to provide education about the crisis facing these social, sensitive, passionately intense, playful, complex, exceedingly intelligent and endangered creatures.”
“When an elephant raids a crop field, it can be devastating for a farmer. Sometimes the elephants are spotted and shot in the act.”
Henrik Rasmussen
“A hurricane is kind of like an elephant -- it can go just about anywhere it pleases.”
Cliff Lusk
“When two elephants fight, it is the grass that gets trampled”
African Proverb
“Did I ever tell you how I shot a wild elephant in my pyjamas? How he got into my pyjamas I'll never know.”
Groucho Marx
“When millions of tons of angry elephant come spinning through the sky, and there was no one there to hear it, does it - philosopically speaking - make a noise?”
Terry Pratchett
