  • zoo are different today than they were in the 50s and 60s..things have changed..I'm glad they expanded the elephant exhibit.giving them more room and more elephants..how are people supposed to learn to appreciate animals...seeing them on tv or movies isnt the same as being in the presence of such amazing animals..

  • wow... people who support the confinement of the animals are fuckin stupid!

    hahaha "shove these animals out of zoos" shes the one who wants to shove these animals into zoos!

  • i love betty white but billy doesn't deserve to be put in a zoo. zoos are so awful

  • Zoos are prisons.

  • Oh, please Betty! You need to get to a doctor and be evaluated for Alzheimer's Disease. Studies have shown there is no connection between seeing an elephant in a zoo and contributing in any meaningful way to elephant conservation. The money for the new exhibit could support the Amboseli Elephant Research in AFrica for 20 years. If you really cared about conservation you wouldn't want to keep Billy confined like a prisoner at a zoo.

  • AllanFan...if it is dangerous to place male elephants with others, why are they building thsi exhibit?? Do you people even know where they GET these elephants from?? Some are rescued, but a lot of them are basically stolen from the wild and taken away from their herd. ( family) Look it up...it's true.

  • Bound is correct. Listen to people who research and study facts about elephants. i am one of them, and I believe Bound is as well. Betty White may have helped to raise a lot of money for the zoo, but she and Slash know very little about what elephants really need. Only animal sanctuaries can provide what they need.

  • bound, allanfan20 is correct. male elephants live mostly solitary lives, though the females live in groups. even as males grow older, they stray little by little, until they are on their own.

  • so are they going to continue building the exibit?

  • Lavender, Billy is a male elephant. Perhaps you're not aware of this, but it's quite natural for male elephants to lives their lives alone after they have matured. They are usually kicked out of their herds once they reach adult hood.

    As a matter of fact, it's quite dangerous to place certain male elephants with other elephants b/c they periodically reach a state of mind called MUST, which makes them extremely aggresive.

    Male elephants are solitary.
