      What are their breeding plans with African elephants?

      @Elephantelephant I don't know there exact plans for breeding, but since there expanding the exhibit the zoo might be receiving more elephants.

      What will this expansion replace? Also will it simply be an expansion to this yard?

      The expansion area used to be an exhibit for African Painted Dogs but that was taken down at the end of 2014, I haven't seen them in so long. And yes it will be an expansion to that yard.

      Six elephants live here: Sophi (51), Tombi (43), Ivory (37) with daughter Zahara (13) and Kubwa (43) with son Kedar (13). Zahara has a potential partner Kedar here, but he is very young. A breeding bull should be obtained for Ivory, Zahara and possibly Kubwa.

      Maybe the zoo wants to breed more elephants. If that's right the zoo will have to obtain a couple bull elephants.
