“We have a process now where we have two new elephants that have joined her. There’s a process of integrating them together, so that takes a bit of time. We don’t just want to rush it because the caregivers are doing this very carefully – taking this each day at a time and seeing that everything goes well,” says Joburg Zoo Board Chairperson, Edgar Neluvhalani.
Neluvhalani says they used the opportunity of World Elephant Day to also pay tribute to Lammie’s milestone. “This is for me and for the Johannesburg Zoo a great event. This magnificent animal that has been here for all this 40-years, born right here and we’re excited and we are quite excited that this day on Elephant Day that we celebrate this wonderful animal.”
Neluvhulani says it won’t be long until Lammie is integrated with the other two elephants. He says that they are still waiting for the contractors to come and make space for the other animals.
