Finding Sanctuary ~
Since 1995, twenty-four elephants have found sanctuary in Tennessee. They live out their lives with the freedom to roam the natural habitat of the Sanctuary, making new friends and special relationships as the years pass.
To read each elephant's unique story visit our 'Meet the Elephants' page and stay up-to-date with weekly posts in the Ele-Notes.
There's lots more to see at the Sanctuary:

Upon her arrival at the Sanctuary, Misty turned over a new leaf. She is playful, cooperative and allowing keepers to form a close and safe relationship with her. Her playfulness is contagious and her affection for all she meets is obvious. Her favorite food is bananas.
