How can there continue to be a question about the freedom and dignity of these wonderful creatures?

Elephants are beautiful majestic animals..they do not belong in a zoo or in a circus doing stupid moronic tricks to amuse human beings that are too ignorant to realise it is wrong. Please stop this! I think nowadays more people would actually go to circuses if they DID NOT use animals!

Mankind are the worst enemy of innocents animals, mankind are predators, inhumane, shameless, and with a lock of mercy that someday will turn around, and teach them, they are not masters, but miserable creatures who take up to themselves to torture and kill, what those acting as parasites don’t have the power to bring back to life. In the meanwhile many put animals trough undeserving hell, and farther more cynical…they call themselves humans

Sorry, Re my previous ;post: I’ve been writing in support of about the elephant Queenie so long that I used her name instead of Maude’s.

PLEASE send Queenie to a sanctuary where she can at last roam and interact with other elephanta – why should an innocent animal be in solitary confinement as though she is a criminal? We don’t even treat murderers in our prisons that way! I can only imagine her suffering all of these years. PLEASE let her go!
thank you.

It is so sad to see this beautifull elephant just swaying from side to side, the fact that it has no companionship and lives in such a small space is heartbreaking. Please send her to the elephant sanctuary so she can be free again!!

I do not know what to say! Humans treat elephants with cruelty keeping them in zoos and circus. Let them go!

This should be an easy decision. We humans are supposed to be compassionate. It is long overdue and now Maude must go to the sanctuary. She has spent most of her life as a zoo animal to profit the Central Florida Zoo. When are we going to stop exploiting lower life forms for our own amusement and personal gain? An animal as intelligent as the elephant does not belong caged. DO THE RIGHT THING NOW ( CENTRAL FLORIDA ZOO )
