Now, They're Angela Hunt's Music Videos From the Safari Zoo

Wed Jul 23, 2008 at 02:05:05 PM

Patrick "Buzz" Williams called it yesterday: "Someone needs to put some music with Angela Hunt's videos," meaning the footage she shot of the swaying elephants at the Africam Safari Zoo in Mexico. And, sure enough, someone's done scored the video. --Robert Wilonsky

You should have said that someone needs to score the video with the elephants swaying to the beat not just some random tune.

George, I have no doubt someone will remedy that problem pronto. So many tunes from which to choose: King Crimson's "Elephant Talk," perhaps?

Margaret-Concerned Citizens for Jenny says:

The Dallas Zoo intends to ship Elephant Jenny to a "drive-thru" tourist attraction in Mexico when she could retire to The Elephant Sanctuary (TES) instead. At TES, Jenny would live in peace on hundreds of lush, natural acres, socialize with other African elephants, and be protected by U.S. anti-cruelty laws.

From her medical record, we know Jenny is terrified of motorized vehicles. When exposed to a car in the past, she stopped eating and became severely depressed for weeks. As such, it is blatantly cruel to send Jenny to a “drive-thru” facility where cars/trucks will be driving close to her constantly. When Jenny was torn from her mother's side at the age of two, we believe her wild African mother was probably shot before Jenny's eyes. A car or truck may have been involved in this life-altering trauma.

Please attend the Rally and stand in peaceful solidarity to oppose Jenny’s transfer to Mexico.
