Los elefantes son animales sociables. Maggie y Anabelle solían vivir juntas en el zoológico de Alaska. Pero después de que Anabelle murió, Maggie se quedó sola. Por varios años, los encargados del zoológico trataron de mantenerla contenta (y caliente). Pero al final enviaron a Maggie a vivir a un santuario (PAWS). Ahora ella es feliz en su hogar, con su nueva manada de otros elefantes. Esta es una historia entrañable sobre cómo los zoológicos se encargan de asegurar lo mejor para los animales bajo su cuidado, incluso cuando lo mejor no esté en el zoológico.
Elephants are social animals. Maggie and Annabelle used to live together at the Alaska Zoo. But after Annabelle died, Maggie was all alone. For years, zookeepers tried to keep her happy (and warm). But ultimately they sent Maggie to live at a sanctuary (PAWS). Now she is happy and at home with her new herd of other elephants. This is a heartwarming story of how zoos ensure the best for the animals in their care-even if the best is not at their zoo.
