PETA loves elephants, but they probably hate Republicans. How weird is that!;)
PETA and other animal rights organizations do not care about animals, not one bit.
They’ve been trying to take away my city’s elephant for years. They do not care about the fact that the city is willing to invest a fair bit of money to ensure her well-being or that Lucy (her name) considers the zoo keepers to be her herd and would be heartbroken to be forced to be separate.
At Lucy’s age, even under the best of circumstances, she stands a significant chance of dying if she were transported 2000 miles away to the Tenesee Elephant Sanctuary. There is also a good chance that Lucy has been too habituated to humans and wouldn’t play nice with the other elephants.
And those points are irrelevant with them. Lucy’s death would actually serve them more than her life.
