"Group Hopes To 'Free Lucky' From San Antonio Zoo"

An animal rights group wants to liberate the only remaining elephant at the San Antonio Zoo.


The organization 'Voice for Animals' says Lucky the elephant is living an unsafe and solitary life, and that it's just not right.

Lucky has lived at the San Antonio Zoo for 46 years. She's one of the stars of the Africa Live exhibit. Lucky has outlived her other two companions and now animal activists say since elephants are very social animals, it's the perfect time to free her. [emphasis added]

And the strange part? Lucky is an Indian elephant.

Anytime I've seen this elephant... she "walks" just a few steps back and forth as if she's dancing... Nearly everytime I've seen her there have only been a handful of other people around... maybe she really IS lonely considering it seems she tries her best to get attention...!

Give her time ... give her time.

One of my kids' favorite home movies, which I took with a camcorder, was of Lucky taking a massive dump during one of our visits to the zoo.
