What an amazing picture!
ReplyDeleteGlad you told us there is an elephant conservation center. In Florida, is it?
Once we visited a private elephant sanctuary in Arkansas. They cared for eleven unwanted or ex-circus elephants.

ReplyDeleteI remember..You work in a RR room..my former lifetime. It always bothered me to see elephants in the circus so I am happy if they started something to help...
ReplyDeleteLove it. Elephants always look so eager to please those they are working for. but I know there have been many mistreated.
ReplyDelete.... and all this time I thought jumbos were built by Boeing!!

Oh wow! When I was a kid, we also love watching the circus! Too bad there weren't much circus here now.

ReplyDeleteOh wow! I love love love elephants!
ReplyDeleteWonderful shot. Thanks for stopping by!
I always loved the elephants at the circus!
ReplyDeletemy goodness! very cool photo. I've never been to a circus before.
ReplyDeleteFantastic photo, usogirl. I wonder if elephants think at all about the curiosity of humans standing on their (the elephant's) heads. I do hope B & B treats their animals well. I am of two minds when it comes to animals in captivity, especially those that are put on display for purely entertainment purposes. I enjoy seeing them, but would much rather do so in the wild, were it possible.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this - Elephants are my favorite animals. They're so smart. I've bookmarked the link you gave us for when I've more time to read through it. Great CC post!
ReplyDeleteOMG - GMTA, eh? I swear we don't plan this, folks!
ReplyDeleteThat is one big critter. Nice lighting on this one.
ReplyDeleteMy critter is here
First of all - it's an awesome photo, and I love it!
ReplyDeleteSecond - you and B/S absolutely crack me up. Your friendship is special beyond words, and your mental and spiritual connection with each other is obvious ;-) You two are so much fun!
That's a neat picture!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great photo! It's amazing how small that human looks on top of the elephant. I love elephants, there such big, goofy creatures but so magnificent!
ReplyDeleteD: That is one big elephant.

Great picture! Did I read that right, that you are in Houston, and possibly not far from me? I saw a comment on another blog mentioning Fairmont (Kohl's). I was there today! I'm in Clear Lake, or did you already know that? What have I missed?
