Visit The Elephant Sanctuary's Welcome Center

Tarra & Flora

The Elephant Sanctuary is pleased to announce the Welcome Center in downtown Hohenwald will present a multi-media presentation and informal discussion during the month of February called What makes an elephant—an ELEPHANT?

Have you ever wondered… Is there a difference between the African and Asian Elephants? How many pounds of food does an elephant eat each day? Why are African elephants called “savannah makers”? Do elephants recognize themselves as individuals? How do elephants communicate over long distances? What is the life span of an elephant? Why are elephants endangered? These questions and more will be answered as you view videos of elephants playing, eating, sleeping and communicating. Visit the Welcome Center and you will discover what truly makes an elephant—an ELEPHANT!

Saturday, February 18th, at 1 p.m. by Caregiver-Education Carol Durham.
