1.1 Asian Elephants, Nicholas and Gypsy, transferred from PAWS's Galt Elephant Facility to the larger ARKS 2000 in San Andreas. PAWS recently completed construction on a bull elephant barn and work for the paddocks will begin soon, along with an addition to the barn for another future resident, Ned who is currently at the Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, TN.

Thats very exciting! I cant wait for SDWAP to start sending their "babies" every to genetically revitalize the captive population.

In the next decade, they really need to think about getting a new bull and sending out their current one, Mahabulane.
I also believe that the SSPs are going to try and keep mothers/daughters together in breeding reccommendations. But Im sure there will be plenty of boys to ship around. Either way, the elephant breeding program is still young and basically most of the breeding elephants are considered founders at this point. The African and Asian elephant captive populations are probably the most genetically diverse of all the captive breeding programs. |

Your right Umngani is pregnant and so is Ndlula. Ndlulamitsi was the first to give birth of this herd -- to Vus'musi who was not fathered by Mabu -- so Ndlula and Mabu still make a good pair.

Umgani was impregnated in late 2007 and Ndula was probably sometime in the summer so it will probably be January/Febuary 2010
