The Elephant Sanctuary | Solomon and Shirley Reunite on her 70th Birthday

GIVE NOW: https://shop.elephants.com/give Solomon James, former caregiver of 70 year old Asian elephant, Shirley, made the journey from Monroe, Louisiana to The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee to surprise Shirley on her birthday—his first visit since 1995. Solomon and the other staff at the Louisiana Purchase Zoo and Gardens played an integral role in retiring Shirley to The Sanctuary. “I guess I never actually dreamed that after working with her for 22 years, that [almost] 20 years later, Shirley would still be here, looking like she’s doing well,” said Solomon. “I’m hoping she has many birthdays and by the way she’s looking now, I believe she’s going to.” About The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee: Located 85 miles southwest of Nashville in Hohenwald, Tenn., The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee provides elephants retired from performance and exhibition with individualized care, the companionship of a herd, and the opportunity to live out their lives in a safe haven dedicated to their well-being. The Sanctuary also works to raise public awareness of the complex needs of elephants in captivity, and the crisis facing elephants in the wild. The Elephant Discovery Center, The Sanctuary’s educational center with exhibits focused on elephants’ role as a keystone species, is open to visitors in downtown Hohenwald. The elephants’ habitats are closed to the public.
