Becky Bauer is excited for ERNA to provide rescued elephants with the “freedom of choice” to live their lives as they wish.

 

The fence crew is here. Fence materials were delivered last week and the crew has already begun construction on the perimeter fence at Elephant Refuge North America. After the land purchase, which took place December 14, 2016, erecting the fence is the next step to realising our dream to provide a safe and healthy environment for captive-held elephants. This is your project as much as ours. Your continued support is needed and sincerely appreciated.

 

Did you know: Carol Buckley has written multiple books; Travels With Tarra; Just for Elephants; and Tarra and Bella, the elephant and dog who became best friends. Last year, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library chose Buckley’s book Tarra and Bella as a permanent addition to their library, sent to children turning five. Check it out on Amazon.

 

Java does a great job of overseeing quality control. Neel Contracting is completing the fence line clearing today. Filling in an area that over the years has eroded is last on their list. Perimeter fence construction begins tomorrow! Follow up on Facebook to see more photos of our progress!
