What is 5 Elephants (5 Animals) about?
Elephants are truly remarkable, unmistakable animals. Their huge size, giant ears, amazing trunk and incredible intelligence make them unique in the natural world. They are highly active, complex, wide-ranging animals who play a key role in the ecosystems they inhabit. 5 Elephants will provide readers with some fascinating elephant facts and figures, as well as introduce some of the serious challenges that wild and captive elephants face. To truly understand elephants, though, we must also get to know them as individuals. We must learn their stories. In 5 Elephants, you will read the stories of five famous elephants. You will meet Echo, a wild elephant who thrived in her natural environment, surrounded by her family. You will also read about Lucy, a lone elephant trapped in a Canadian zoo, and Tarra, an entertainment elephant who is now living out her days at a sanctuary. You will discover why Tusko, a travelling entertainment elephant, had such a tragic life. And you will meet Thandora, a zoo elephant who was given a new life in the wild.
