Episode 46: Not Ready to Come Out Yet (Pocha & Guille Part IV)

We start off this week's episode with the recent news of Kuky, the female African elephant at the Buenos Aires EcoPark, who passed away suddenly. Scott shares more details about how long the permit process has taken for the three female African elephants waiting to come to the sanctuary.

Then we go back to May 2022, when Pocha and Guille arrived at the sanctuary but weren’t quite ready to leave their transport crates. After decades in a sterile, subterranean exhibit, the sights, sounds, and smells that mother and daughter experienced during those first hours at sanctuary must have been overwhelming.

Please note: This episode was recorded prior to the events at the Aalborg Zoo, Denmark and originally scheduled for release on 5. Nov.

Watch all videos of Pocha and Guillermina’s relocation.

Who we are: Global Sanctuary for Elephants exists to create vast, safe spaces for captive elephants, where they are able to heal physically and emotionally. There are elephants around the world in need of sanctuary, but too few places exist to be able to care for even a fraction of the elephants. International support is necessary to build sanctuaries for elephants in need of rescue and rehabilitation. Our pilot project is Elephant Sanctuary Brazil, currently home to six female Asian elephants.
