A zoo official has stated that they would consider getting another elephant. They would be sentencing that animal to the same abuse and misery in which Tina has lived for so long.

I don't believe Vancouver Zoo is equiped to own any elephant. They have ignored Tina's plight for years. They promised, years ago to expand and improve her living conditions which they totally ignored.

If anyone gets word that they are entertaining the thought of another elephant, please publish immediately. I believe we should do everything possible to stop them in their tracks.
