I KNOW for a fact that he is receiving exemplary care from the staff at the L.A. Zoo. Please do NOT support the effort to send him away from his loving home at the Los Angeles Zoo.

Billy needs to remain in his loving home at The Los Angeles Zoo, in an environment where he can live out the remainder of his life in peace and dignity. The zoo provides the best care for all of its wildlife, and to send him to a sanctuary where none of that is guaranteed or even matched is unconscionable. Many other animals removed from zoos suffer at these sanctuaries that have poor care, do not allow the owners to visit their animals, and most of them die within a year of staying there. Nosey the elephant is one such example. She was happy with the Leibel family, until she stolen from her home and placed into an unsafe trailer to be taken to The Elephant Sanctuary, which has a history of letting their elephants die due to their 'hands-off' approach to elephants. This motion is supported heavily by animal right groups and extremists such as ALF and ELF. They do not care for facts no matter how you engage them and their ultimate goal is to remove animals from human care entirely. That means no pets, no conservation, no meat or dairy, no breeding of endangered species, and not only that, but their thinking endangers the ecosystem in which we live. Again, DO NOT surrender Billy the elephant to sanctuary. Let him live in the zoo and drop this case. Thank you for your time.
