  • Remember Anne in a dark shed, barely able to move? Well look at her now... This video will melt your heart!
    Thanks to Jon Cracknell / Longleat for the footage. And thanks to all the groups involved in Anne's move.

    Brilliant and well done to everyone involved in Annes rescue, and special thanks to Graham Garen of the Wales Ape and Monkey Sanctuary for taking the time out of his busy schedule to move Anne and to Longleat for giving Anne the care and devotion she deserves ..

    Maybe she needs a friend. If not another elephant... another animal.

    I would love to see this elephant in a more natural habitat with either other elephants from her background or released to the wild.

    After seeing the video of Anne being abused, and then seeing how this and how she is in such a better place, I actually cried. I was so sad that this horrible abuse happens to animals. My mind just cannot comprehend such cruelty! I've just never seen worse.
    Anne, may you live a happy and comfortable life at Longleat!!
    You've suffered enough.

    @Ulysses61 We certainly understand your concerns. Unfortunately there are no elephant sanctuaries in Europe at the moment. So while BFF oppose elephants being kept in captivity, due to the unique nature of Anne's situation, in this case, it is such a vast improvement (there is a pool). Just look at how happy she is compared to before. This is hopefully temporary, and we will also be requesting that Anne is not put on public display, we want this old lady to live her life out in peace and quiet.

    Having just read something truly awful about cats and dogs in China this little video has gone some way to cheer me up. A very happy elephant- no doubt her arthritis might improve a little just by being able to move more naturally and when SHE wants to.

    for sweet anne, now safe
    an elephant she can be,
    at last, with inner and outer
    harmony.
    and to all others out there
    ...we hear your voice.
    we know you are suffering,
    you had no choice.
    but choices we have and we
    have made a decision.
    to protect our precious brothers
    and sisters,
    from human cruelty and derision.
    and in that spirit, as i sit here and cry,
    we hope you hear us
    and know we will forever try♥
