TIPPI
HEDREN, ELWOOD, AND FRIEND
ELWOOD
MET TIPPI HEDREN AFTER WATCHING A SPECIAL ON HER WILD CAT RESERVE "SHAMBALA"
ON THE DISCOVERY CHANNEL. SHE INVITED ELWOOD OUT TO SHAMBALA TO SPEND
A WEEK. SHE SO FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM THAT HE WAS HER CONSTANT COMPANION
FOR SEVEN MONTHS BEFORE RETURNING HOME. EVER SINCE THEN HE AND THE CLASS
HAVE WORKED HARD TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE WILD ANIMALS AT SHAMBALA.
TIPPI,
KURA, TIMBO AND I GO OUT FOR A WALK
ONE
OF ELWOOD'S FAVORITE THINGS TO DO AT SHAMBALA WAS TO SPEND TIME WITH THE
ELEPHANTS. BOTH ELEPHANTS CAME FROM THE CIRCUS. NEITHER ONE LIKED LIFE
IN THE CIRCUS. THEY ARE AFRICAN ELEPHANTS AND WILL ENJOY THE REST OF THEIR
LIFE ON THE RANCH LIVING AS CLOSE AS THEY CAN TO THE PLAINS OF AFRICA.
SHAMBALA IS A GOOD RETIREMENT HOME. |
