  11. It's sad to see such a magnificent creature in captivity, Bob, but it is probably safer there than it is in the wild. With my very best wishes - - - Richard

  13. Hello Bob, I love the elephants. They are awesome, I am sure it is in a safe place and can not be hunted there. Enjoy your day and weekend!

  14. It fills my heart with sadness to see this elephant against a fence, and to contemplate the extent to which we have decimated wildlife the world over. We humans are truly slimy bastards.

  15. Hi Bob,
    Super set of images of this beautiful creature.
    What a shame they are only safe in captivity, but I would bet somebody has tried to get at them in a zoo.
    All the best, John

  20. Las texturas son magníficas, hasta el punto de que parece que si tocas vas a sentir las arrugas de su piel. Es una pena que esté en cautiverio.
    Un abrazo,
