I am updating my earlier post about the death of Joanna Burke. Joanna loved Winkie, this was an unfortunate tragedy. But she is buried among the ones she loved so much. We should all be so fortunate!

Didn't Stephen Harper say he doesn't watch CBC, CTV, or any Canadian News Channel....He primarily watches CNN ....What a shame... But Canadian TV is mighty boring

I agree with one of the comments.... outlaw ZOOs and circuses, along with rodeos while your at it!Bless you for having this sanctuary.

Pingtampa, I agree- Carol is a remarkable women, unfortunately even in America as in the rest of the world, the number of facilities that engage in the abuse of animals outnumber those that protect them. If only zoos and circuses were banned for good.....

They BEAT her?!!! That is WRONG. Thank you for saving these animals, especially these elephants.

Anyone who has seen a ZOO should know that a small space for an elephant is absolutely CRAZY. I hate ZOOs, I refuse to pay them to pen animals in small enclosures. The elephant sanctuary is 2500 acres. The people who pay to visit circuses and ZOOs are the ones who need to be ashamed. I will be boycotting any enterprise that condones the penning of wild animals. We have Jails that pen up criminal humans...I don't like jails for any wild animals.
