Cynthia Moss Visits ARK 2000 Elephants

Cynthia Moss, world-renowned elephant expert, and founder, program director and trustee of the Amboseli Trust for Elephants (ATE), Kenya and USA, attended the ARK 2000 dedication ceremony for PAWS new African elephant habitat at ARK 2000 on May 11, 2002. The 80-acre natural habitat, The Cynthia Moss African Elephant Habitat, was named in her honor before the elephants were moved from Galt.

Last week, eight years later, Cynthia visited the nine elephants at ARK 2000 for the first time. Directors Pat Derby and Ed Stewart were anxious about her evaluations of the facility.

"She sees wild elephants every day behaving as they should with little human interference. Captivity can never replicate that world. ARK can only function as a substitute for the life they deserve, but we are trying to provide as much space and social opportunities as possible, said Pat Derby.
