What you need to know before your trail

Sam was born and raised in an elephant sanctuary. When a beloved elephant dies giving birth, Sam develops a connection with baby Woolly–who isn’t actually an elephant but was cloned from woolly mammoth DNA. And the billionaire genius behind the cloning experiment will stop at nothing to protect his investment. Smart, determined, and loving, Sam stands up to this powerful adversary to protect the sanctuary and her herd. In the best tradition of child-animal friendship stories, Elephant Secret explores the strong and complex bond between Sam and her elephants while offering a fascinating, authentic glimpse into elephant–and human–behavior.

Travel Guide

Travel with the elephants in Canada and California

A few weeks before the Toronto Zoo opened to the public in the summer of 1974, a group of elephants sailed across the ocean to Toronto, their new home. The numbers dwindled over the years due to health problems and breeding problems.

Elephants are often a problem for zoos given their size, health issues, care and breeding programs. They also need a lot of space and as the elephants get older, it’s too dangerous to move them.

There is a trend for Canadian zoos to phase out having elephants. Toronto has moved theirs to the PAW resort in California
