Hello John,

Today is World Elephant Day! And we are asking our wonderful supporters to Take Action for elephants. ([link removed])

Elephants have been a focus of Freedom for Animals since our beginnings in 1957, and with your support we have achieved a lot for elephants since then. But there is still a lot of work to be done! There are still 49 elephants within 11 zoos, in the UK, that hold captive elephants.

You may remember last year, there were reports that the government were discussing banning the use of elephants in zoos ([link removed]) . ([link removed])

We are now calling for them to commit to what they have said and end the use of elephants in zoos once and for all, and allow the remaining elephants to be either released to the wild, or where that is not possible, to be transferred to Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries (GFAS) accredited sanctuaries such as the Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee or the European Elephant Sanctuary in France, where they can live out the rest of their lives in peace.
TAKE ACTION FOR ELEPHANTS ([link removed])
Imagine if elephants were no longer held captive in zoos!

This would be a monumental step forward in the ending of all zoos that keep animals captive purely for entertainment. And it would set a huge precedence and be a step closer for other animals like big cats and polar bears, that suffer greatly in zoos.

All animals suffer in zoos and we will continue the fight until all are free!
