🎉 Welcome to your retirement home, elephant Charley! 🐘 The sight of Charley arriving in his new forever home, in his custom-built elephant-sized travel crate, was a sight to behold – and something that no-one who was present will ever forget! 🚚 Charley can now officially call the 10,000-hectare species-appropriate Shambala Private Game Reserve in Limpopo, South Africa home. 🌳⛰️ Now in his adaptation enclosure, Charley will begin his acclimatisation period. FOUR PAWS, in partnership with the #EMSFoundation in South Africa and Shambala Private Game Reserve, worked closely behind the scenes to ensure the best retirement plan for the 42-year-old African bull. It was of utmost importance that the whole process has Charley's best interest at heart, and that the transportation to his new home is as safe and stress-free as possible. 💔 Years performing in a traveling circus and living in a zoo means he has already endured years of loneliness. 💛 Welcome to your second chance Charley - we wish you a wonderful retirement! #AnimalWelfare #ShambalaPrivateGameReserve #Elephant #FOURPAWS 📸 © FOUR PAWS
