WORLD ELEPHANT DAY
On the eve of World Elephant Day, I wanted to introduce you to Athena, a brand new baby ele, born this year to Mona Lisa of the Goddess family. Named after the Greek Goddess of wisdom, courage, inspiration, we thought she would be the perfect ambassador for World Ele Day. Help make sure this little elephant has the brightest, healthiest future possible.
