Elephants head east

The elephants at the Oklahoma City Zoo traveled up the turnpike yesterday to move into their new home in Tulsa. (You can read about it, watch a video about it or listen to the discussion on our Pet Show podcast.)

 One of the photos of the day made it into the paper, but I wanted to share all four pictures we had. All are taken by Gavin Elliott of Tulsa Zoo Friends.

Read about the elephant move – and why it’s vital to the captive Asian elephant population – at our special Web site, Elephant Nation.
