This a picture from the Pinawela elephant orphanage in Sri Lanka. And in this picture is Shanthi as a baby. I don't know which one she is, but she is in this picture. These six little elephants were all orphaned. They were - most of them fell into wells; they were born in the wild. Their families were raiding crops in farming areas, the farmers went to chase them off, and the babies got stuck in one way or another. These babies were collected in an elephant orphanage, and then in 1975 and '76, about 8 of those elephants were sent out to zoos around the world, and Shanthi was one of those elephants. Now, in 1976, these elephants were already considered to be an endangered species. And when they came here, they came under very specific requirements. You could not import an Asian elephant after the mid-'70's without having them promised to be part of a reproductive program to save the species.
