It's crazy to think that I began this thread in January and already more zoos have gone out of elephants (or announced a decision). Just in 2024,...
Are there any favorite or least favorite elephant exhibits you've seen, or particularly memorable experiences with elephants?
I’ve visited 551 different zoos and aquariums and I was curious to note how many zoos I’d been to with elephants. That question, which was posed...

I've visited 62 zoos with Siamangs. Some of these zoos are ones I’ve visited on many occasions, but I’ve listed them only once and that...

I'm not so sure that either Nashville or Brookfield will ever bring back elephants. Nashville sent away its 4 female African elephants in 2015 and...
I'd be surprised if Roger Williams phases out elephants by 2031. In 2031, their three girls would still be 46 years old, which is a reasonable age...
I decided to compose a similar list of places that have phased out their elephants (or a certain species) since 1991 just for comparison. I will...
Another great list. One minor correction, Lincoln Park only had Africans by the time they made the decision to phase them out. Asian elephants had...
Southwick’s had an Asian and a African elephant until the mid 2000s when the African died and the late 2000s - early 2010s when their Asian died....
