So did anyone else see the documentary about the elephant santuary in Kentucky? It told the moving story of several former circus elephants that have been retired to this big wild area in Kentucky run by a woman who used to be in the circus. The best part was the trip of the Louisiana elephant and her caretaker up to the sanctuary. When she got there she was reunited with another female elephant that she knew from the circus circuit of her youth. They remembered each other.
Yes, I cried.
