First Snapshots of Shirley
|
July 6, 1999.
Shirley and Tarra liked each other right from the start! Shirley showed
Tarra all her injuries that she received when attacked by another elephant
at the circus. Tarra sympathetically inspected each injury and the two
elephants caressed each other with their trunks.
|
Fruits and
vegetables awaited Shirley when she entered the Sanctuary Barn. Cabbages,
oranges, watermelon, squash... all sorts of yummy food to show Shirley
how much we already loved her! Tarra squashed the watermelon, then
helped herself to much of it.

There are
so many people to thank who contributed to Shirley's move. Included
in this picture are friends from the Louisiana Purchase Gardens and
Zoo, drivers of the van, Argo Films, and Sanctuary personnel.
