I’m very happy to report another usage of one of my photos! This time it is a photo from 2011 of Liz the African Elephant, a former resident of Six Flags Discovery Kingdom (formerly Marine World Africa USA) in Vallejo, CA. This was taken during the Elephant Encounter show and is now featured in an article about the retirement of Six Flags’ two resident elephants to Wildlife Safari in Winston, OR.
The elephants, 51-year-old Liz and 33-year-old Valerie, were moved to Wildlife Safari in Winston, Oregon in order to provide them with a more social environment than a herd of two individuals can provide, theme park officials said Tuesday.
